Hi darwin53,


We understand you want to remove the unknown senders filter in the Messages app. We're happy to help.


To turn that filter off just navigate to Settings  > Messages, then turn off the Filter Unknown Senders option.


Block, filter, and report messages on iPhone


We hope this helps. Take care!
