Hi HCReyes,
We understand that some of your messages are disappearing. To clarify, are you referring to messages within the built-in Messages app (iMessage and standard text messages), or the third party app Messenger?
If you're referring to Messages, go to Settings > Messages > Keep Messages to see if it is selected to disappear after some time. If you use Messages with iCloud, make sure the setting is enabled in Settings > [your name] > iCloud.
We also recommend ensuring your software is updated to the latest version. Make sure to back up your data before updating, if needed. These article should help:
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
If you're referring to a third party app, make sure that app is updated in the App Store: How to manually update apps on your Apple device.
You may also need to delete the app, then redownload it. Keep in mind you may lose data stored in the app if data is not stored on the server or a backup option is not available. Here's how to Delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
Should the behavior persist with a third party app, contact the app developer to report it: How to contact an app developer.
Hope that helps!
Cheers!
