Hi Calagoss,


To clarify, what happens when you try to reply to a text directly from a notification? For example, does it not open the field to let you respond? Or are you able to type a response, but it doesn't go through?


Also, just to confirm, are you following the steps below to attempt to reply?

Reply from the Lock Screen

From the Lock Screen, touch and hold the notification that you want to reply to. Or depending on your device, you might need to swipe left over the notification and tap View.*
Type your message.
Tap the Send button send message button.
If you have an iPhone X or later, or an iPad with Face ID, and can't reply to a message from the Lock Screen, go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode, and turn on Reply with Message. If you have an iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone 8 or earlier, or an iPad, go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode > Allow Access When Locked, and turn on Reply with Message.


Let us know and we'll continue from there.


Cheers!
