Accidentally reported text as junk on iPhone

I didn't block contacts instead I was going through my messages and selected all of them to just delete them , but instead I press report junk. All this messages where my friends, clients, family, my son school school parents and teachers as well apple and many others that are very important. Some of them are not in my contacts and most of my work inquiry are in it. I already followed your instructions and check my blocked messages and contacts and is none of it is there Again I didn't accidentally block them, instead of deleting ( to free up space on the phone) i pressed the " report as junk". I have never previously seen that option, since I was going through fast I just selected all and without paying attention I thought I was pressing delete, when I screen popped this messages are reported as junk it was to late to undo. All messages where gone from text messaging. Please help.

Add me to the chorus of people who has reported all my messages as spam, accidentally. I frequently delete messages just to clean the inbox clutter. I've actually made the report-as-spam mistake twice, to literally all my messages.


Apple, note that literally thousands of people have now reported this, so who know how many thousands or millions didn't bother. Make the button to report as spam a smaller, or secondary option.

They stopped listening when they reached the billions. I'm sure they will fix it, if we buy the new IPhone. Same way they handled batteries. I'm so desapointed with Apple lately, but who cares, we are just small tiny fish in a big tank.

Btw- apparently this feature is useless. As long as you keep texting your contacts nothing will happen and Vice-versa... i was concerned too but I kept getting texts.
