Bug: iMessage or FaceTime not working

Many people have encountered issues with FaceTime and/or iMessage not working after the iOS 7 update.

Potential solutions:

Turn FaceTime and/or iMessage off and on again via the toggles in Settings.

Turn off Cellular Data in Settings > Cellular and make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi, then go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. You’ll have to set up your connection again, but FaceTime and iMessage should now work.

If nothing else has worked then back up your iPhone and try restoring it.

iPad, iOS 7.0.3
