imessages automatically being marked as read

My iMessages, currently only from one particular contact, are occasionally being automatically being marked as read as they arrive. I do not get a notification when the message arrives, meaning I don’t see them unless I look at my messages.

has anyone else had this issue?

Thanks :)

Unable to send iMessages to myself on my iPhone X When sending a "text" message to myself using my iPhone X, it only sends SMS messages (green bubble). I cannot send iMessage (blue bubble) to myself using my iPhone. There is no issue with sending iMessages to all my other contacts, the only issue is with sending to myself when using my iPhone X with iOS 16.0.2 installed. I am able to send iMessages (blue bubble) from my MBP 2015 and 2021 versions all the time with no issues. After syncing, my iPhone X shows MBP iMessage with blue bubbles. How to fix and keep it fixed? I've tried restarting, signing out/in to iCloud, disable/enable iMessages on both iPhone and MBP. Help! Paul

iPhone shows unread text messages My Messages app says I have 57 unread messages when your looking at the app icon. However I have deleted / unread all the messages so it should say 0, but they are still there. How do I get rid of this. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

I'm having this exact same issue. Ive tried deleting the contact, disabling messages and re-enabling messages but nothing seems to be working.
