My Messages app says I have 57 unread messages when your looking at the app icon. However I have deleted / unread all the messages so it should say 0, but they are still there. How do I get rid of this.
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 16
I believe there’s a bug in iOS 16.1 that doesn’t clear the count in the Messages badge immediately. It will clear after a delay. I’ve reported it.

Sometimes you might have unread texts but you aren’t able to spot them because you’re using the Filter Unknown Senders feature.
A Filters option becomes available in the top-left corner of the Messages home screen. If you select ‘Known Senders’ or ‘Unknown Senders’ you will exclude some of the texts from showing up. Always use the All Messages view!
In most cases, this is the main reason for the Messages badge to appear to be stuck displaying an unread number! You can disable it in Settings -> Messages -> Filter Unknown Senders.
I hope this helps
Try restarting the phone. If that doesn't work, try a Forced Restart...
Thanks, Lawrence! I appreciate your help.
