Q: I downloaded iOS 10 on my iPhone 7.  in messages I push on the arrow and don't get the options for the different bubbles like slam or invisible.

i Also can't access the fireworks or balloons etc. when someone sends me a message with one of those options it says it under what they sent but I can't see it in my phone.

    Do you have Reduce Motion enabled? This will prevent you from using iMessage effects. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Reduce > Motion > turn off 'Reduce Motion'

    Hi, Ssheildcass.

     

    As an active iPhone user, I understand your need to use the exiting new features of iOS 10. I would be happy to help you solve this problem. As per my understanding, you are not able to get any of the iMessage effects to work.

     

    Have you tried force touching. To do this, press hard on the display. Don't worry- it won't break. You can also adjust the amount of pressure you need to apply to activate force touch by going into the Settings application. Once your in the Setting application, then scroll down to general and click on it. Then go down again to accessibility, and then once again down to 3D touch. Click on that and from there you can adjust the amount of pressure you need to apply to activate 3D touch.

     

    Hope this helped!
