I sent a text with photo to the wrong person. Is their a way to retract it from their phone if it is unread?
No. As with emails, the ability to retract a message lies with the recipients service, not the senders. As a sender, for email or texts, once you click on “send” the message is no longer yours to control. It is now the recipients to control. Just as with dropping a letter in a mail box - once sent, it’s out of your hands.
There is no way for the sender to "retract" text messages.
Did you use the Messages app? If YES then there is no way to recall that message. It has been delivered and now resides on the recipient's devices.
