Unreport a text as Spam

If I accidentally marked a text message I was deleted as Report as Spam. How do you undo this? I want to be sure I receive these messages in the future

Greetings Lilbuddy123,


While it is not possible to undo that report, when you report a message as junk, you are not prevented from receiving future messages from that number.


Block, filter, and report messages on iPhone - Apple Support


"Report spam or junk messages

When you use iMessage, you can report spam messages to Apple. Depending on your carrier and country or region, you can also report spam you receive with SMS and MMS.

In the list of messages, touch and hold the spam message, then tap Report Junk. Or, if you’ve opened the message, scroll to the bottom of the message, tap Report Junk, then tap Delete and Report Junk.

The sender’s information and the message are sent to Apple, and the message is permanently deleted from your device.

Note: Reporting junk or spam doesn’t prevent the sender from sending messages, but you can block the number to stop receiving them.

If you don’t see the option to report spam or junk messages you receive with SMS or MMS, contact your carrier. See the Apple Support article Wireless carrier support and features for iPhone."


Take care.
