Hey Beethoven1216,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! We understand that your text messages are coming in out of order, but need a bit more details to help narrow this down. Let us know the following to help:


  • Because menu options and features can vary, which software version shows in Settings > General > About?
  • Are the messages out of order in a particular thread, are the threads themselves out of order, or something else?
  • Do you notice this happens with a particular contact or group message?


In the meantime, some steps that can help with odd issues would be to close the Messages app and restart your iPhone:


  1. Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support
  2. Restart your iPhone - Apple Support


Keep us posted.


Take care!
