Messenger App: Unable to complete request. Please try again later

I just upgraded to a new iphone 14 pro and transferred my settings from an older iphone. Everything is working except the facebook Messenger app.


I can't login I get this error message:


Unable to complete request. Please try again later


I'm not using a vpn. I've upgraded to the latest ios. I've deleted facebook and messenger and reinstalled both those apps. I've tried different internet connections. I've rebooted the phone.

I had the same problem and the cause was an App called “LockDown” that serves to block trackers and ads. If you have any FireWall or VPN installed, it could be the cause as well. After logging in, I enabled the App again and everything works normally.
