I can't send on iMessage group chat.

I cannot seem to send anything on an imessage group chat that i am in right now. I did not leave the chat, and i was not kicked off the chat either. I had one of my friends remove my name and add me back in and it worked for a while then the text box automatically disappeared. Whenever i go to the settings for the group chat, all the options except for do not disturb are greyed out as well. Is there any way that I can prevent this from happening and fix this? thanks

iPhone 6s, iOS 10.3.3

Hello hamza03,


Thanks for that info and choosing the Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems you are having issues with a group message thread in the Messages app on your iPhone. To help resolve this issue, please follow these steps from the article on your situation:

If you have issues with a group message

If you’re in a group message and stop receiving messages, check if you left the conversation. Open Messages and tap the group message. If you see the message You left the conversation, then either you left the conversation or you were removed from the group message. You can rejoin a group message only if someone in the group adds you.

You can also start a new group message. Here’s how:

  1. Open Messages and tap User uploaded file.
  2. Enter the phone numbers or email addresses of your contacts.
  3. Write a new message, then tap Send.

If you have other issues with a group message, you might need to delete the conversation and start a new one. To delete a group message:

  1. Open Messages and find the conversation that you want to delete.
  2. Swipe left over the conversation.
  3. Tap Delete.

When you delete a message, you can't recover it. If you want to save parts of a message, take a screenshot. To save an attachment in a message, touch and hold the attachment, tap More, then tap Save.

Cheers!
