I have an iPad mini 4 running iOS 15.5. When I click on the messages icon to open and view my iMessages and text messages the app opens with a blank display and no messages shown. If I press the home button sometimes they become visible temporarily but when I click to go back in to messages the screen goes back to the empty frame again. Sometimes Messages just crashes 20 seconds after I launch it. Works fine on my iPhone. Any ideas?
