Hey Maribeth Callahan,

Is this happening with a new conversation thread or conversation threads that have already been established?

If it is happening with conversation threads that have already been sent/established, you could see if restarting your iPhone 7 might help: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support Restarting can help refresh the iOS and might help resolve this issue.

Another step you can take is to ensure your iPhone is fully updated, to see if that may help with this issue as well. If there is an available update, you'll want to backup and update as seen in the articles below:

Let us know if those steps help or if you've already tried those.

Take care!
