I have a Pixel 2XL and when I send a message to someone who has both a home and mobile number in their contacts it sends the message to both. This is especially bad when I'm sending group texts to 15 people and half of them have home numbers. On my last phone (Moto-Z) I had a setting where the app would only send text messages to mobile numbers, but I can't find it in Android Pie (9).

I'm sure it's an easy fix but I've been working on it for an hour! Please help :).

If you porgram your mobile and home contacts in one listing, thats why your messages go to both numbers.
Try programming the mobile and home numbers as seperate contacts.
Then reprogram the group text to only include the mobile contacts!
