Old iMessage

I have a very old iMessage that can’t be deleted. Whenever I restart my iPad I get a notification saying an iMessage from 451 days ago has not been delivered. I don’t know who I sent the message to, but I would like to delete the notification. It does not show up anywhere in my iMessages app that I can find. Please help. Thank you.

Hello audreyperry,


It sounds like you're receiving a message that a iMessage cannot be delivered from quite a while back. We will be happy to look at this with you.


First, can you ensure that you have updated your device to iPadOS 15.0.2? Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Next, if the issue still remains, go to Settings > Notifications > Messages and toggle the notifications for Messages off then back on. You may also want to restart the iPad:


Restart your iPad


Cheers!
