“Tap to show message”

I received two iMessages today (both from the same sender in less than 1min.), the first a map location, the second a text about the location. In iMessages these now show up as one message. Th only shows “tap to show message”, and when I click on it it only shows the text from the second message. I googled it and don’t see any results for “tap to show message” in quotes.


Can anyone here help/explain this?


Thanks so much,

Hello Paulbubba,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!


I understand from your post that you are no longer able to see your friend's location that they shared with your in Messages. One reason for this is that the time that your friend chose to share their location has expired. The following article has information under the section titled, "Share your location from Messages" which will explain how you can set a time frame to share your location:


Find My Friends: Share your location


Best Regards.
