SMS (green) message read status not syncing from iPhone
I am having an issue where the read status of SMS (green) messages are not syncing from my iPhone to the MacBook Pro or my iPad. AKA - the message still has a notification (red dot) on my MacBook Pro or iPad, even though I read it on my iPhone. iMessages (blue) messages read status is working fine.
Here are the observations:
- The actual messages are showing up on each device and can be read. No issue with delivery of the actual SMS messages
- If I read the SMS on the MacBook Pro or the iPad, it does sync the read status to the other device (MacBook Pro to iPad or iPad to MacBook Pro)
- Additionally, if I read the SMS message on my MacBook Pro or iPad, it will change the read status on the iPhone (but not the other way around.)
- iMessage (blue) message read status are syncing fine between all devices all directions.
- I am on the most current versions of MacOS and iOS
- I’ve tried to log out of iCloud and back in on all devices. That did not solve the problem.
