Unread text message error

Hello! My iPhone 14 is saying I have 7 unread text messages. However, when I go

to my text message folder (unknown sender, unread etc) they are show are 0 unread messages. So I am

up to date on all texts, but the green box on my Home Screen still shows I have 7. How do I clear that??

Hello jdolo529!


To clear these unread messages, please go to: Messages App > Edit > Read All.


Also, some users have figured out to have Siri “read all unread messages”.


I hope this is helpful. Good Luck!
