Since the last update, my texts are showing a read time. I have never had that turned on and the setting did not change. I attempted all of the advice that I could find from previous updates, i.g. reboot, toggle settings on/off. Nothing of correcting the issue.
iPhone X, iOS 14
I was having this issue too. I did a bit of digging and figured out it was only sending read receipts to people in my Favorites. I checked their info in Messages and they all had Send Read Receipt on. I changed it and so far so good.
Updated to 14.3 now, same problem.
I have never had this option turned on and it has never inadvertently been toggled on during an update. I have checked every place that it could turned, Settings >messaging as well as the individuals info at the top of a text thread.
This is really annoying.
In my case and in the case of most readers that’s a good thing a nice wish that you did not have one.
But in reality it won’t stop the folks like you that are smart enough to find a computer but not smart enough to use it effectively.
Hood luck in your quest to “have a computer” some day.
I just recently got the iPhone 12 Pro because my iPhone X was having some issues. Ever since I got this phone it’s been nonstop problems. Half the time I have no cellular data regardless of whether I use LTE or 5G auto. I have to put my phone on airplane mode and then turn airplane mode off again to get my cellular service back when I never had that issue before. Now I just learned my read receipts are on even though every option for “read receipts on” is turned off. I have always been a huge iPhone fan and never wanted another phone but this issue is making me seriously consider switching from Apple to Samsung because of all these new issues. If anyone finds a solution for the read receipts please let me know because it’s frustrating and I’m hoping I don’t have to switch to Samsung.
That is what I have already done, doors not stop the read receipt. I have been with Apple since the beginning, I know how to work the basic settings. This has to be a bug.

This is happening to me too. Has anyone found a fix?
Happening to me as well. This is a bug. Please fix immediately
I’m having the same issue with the read receipt since the update and have done everything to try and fix it but nothing works. Will this be fixed soon? It’s really frustrating.
Disgusting lack of respect for people‘s privacy. I will not be updating to iOS 14.
Thanks!
Welcome!
what if we don't have a computer???
This is happening to me too. I never put read receipts on. I double checked and it’s still off. My phone did update and I guess it has started since then. How do I get the read receipts off?!
No that did not help. But thx
Same here. This is so ridiculous, Apple. These kinds of basic problems should not be happening in 2020.
