When are you going to text her vs When will you text her

Hello everyone,

Please help dispel my doubt, which sentence is correct and natural:

"When are you going to text your grandmother?" or "When will you text your grandmother?". "Will" or "going to" and why?

Thanks in advance

Hi Micawber, does "Going to" in this sentence mean I am intented to text my grandmother, and surely will do?And, "will" means "I plan to text my grandmother but may not"?

No; the difference is no more than I have already indicated.
