Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

iPhone text messages disappeared

I have an iPhone XS. It was backed up one week ago. Yesterday, several text message threads disappeared.


I restarted the phone. I turned iMessage on and off. I turned SMS and MMS messaging on and off too. However none of the message threads returned.


Does anyone have any ideas on what the issue is or a fix?

Same problem! One contact that I can see—my daughter!!!—I’ve lost the entire message thread. I just allowed the automatic iOS update. VERY frustrating. And it seems to be happening to many iPhone users.

I have an iPhone 11.


Apple, please address this!!
