Troubleshooting iMessage Activation:

A. Try Setting it Up Correctly:

Go Here: Use Messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


B. Install a Carrier Update:

It might be prompting you for a carrier update to install. So, go here for that. Update your carrier settings manually on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


C. Enable Messages in ScreenTime:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: Screen Time
  3. Tap: Allowed Apps
  4. Tap: Messages (So it is in "ALLOWED APPS")


No success?....

D. Whom to Contact:

Contact your Carrier, as they are the one who provide you with the service of Messaging.
