Answer:
Answer:

How did you go to the other app? Did you close messages and go somewhere, or did you respond to a notification on the screen? If you responded to a notification, the text is gone. If you closed Messages, then it should have been there. I'm guessing you did not close messages, and that is why it is gone. There is no draft message folder, and no auto-save either.
