Hi sandie196,


It sounds like you're not receiving notifications for the Messages app. If so, check your delivery settings with the help of the steps below found in the guide here: Change message notifications on iPhone


"Manage message notifications

  1. Go to Settings  > Notifications > Messages.
  2. Choose options, including the following:
    • Turn Allow Notifications and immediate delivery for Time Sensitive Notifications on or off.
    • Set the position, locations, style, and sounds for alerts.
    • Choose when message previews should appear on the Lock Screen, and how they should be grouped.
    • Set how many times to repeat an alert (from Never to 10 Times) below Customize Notifications."



You can also check your focus settings with the help of the steps here: Use Focus on your iPhone or iPad


Regarding the issue with sending messages, check your settings and complete the steps here: If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone or iPad


If there's a different issue or it remains after checking your settings, let us know a bit more about what's occurring and we'll continue. For example, any alerts you're seeing when attempting to send a message.


Best.
