iMessage & calculator apps

iPhone 11 running iOS 14.4

Since updating phone to iOS 14.4, I’ll receive a text, and when I go to open it (I’ll click on my message app from home-screen), my phone will open my calculator app instead. It does it so randomly, every few days or so, that I wish I could screen record it. It makes no sense, obviously a glitch. But I’m wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Hi halister89,


Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today. As we understand, when you tap your Messages app, you will occasionally have your calculator app open instead.


Since this started, have you restarted your iPhone? Restart your iPhone


Have you tried restarting after forcing the two apps closed? Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch.


While you can't remove the Messages app, have you tried removing the Calculator app and then redownloading it from the App Store? You could do this in combination with a restart. Remove apps from iPhone.


Let us know how it goes.
