Newly received iPhone messages show above sent messages

I have been experiencing this exact same problem for a few weeks now. The messages I receive will show up above the messages I send. It’s very frustrating and confusing! My phone has also become EXTREMELY SLOW! I guarantee these problems are a result of the most resent update Apple sent out to our phones. This is ridiculous and needs to be fixed immediately! My time zone and all other settings are (and have been) correct. It’s not us, Apple! It’s you. Fix this issue ASAP, please! I seriously cannot handle it anymore.

I am having this problem as well on my iPhone 6 Plus. My wife is having the same problem on her iPhone 7. My wife's friend is having the same problem on her iPhone. It is not a date and time issue. It is a bug that needs to be addressed. We need a fix now, please.

Same exact thing is happening to me.

Having the same issue as all the rest. Text replies to me are appearing above the message I sent first. Need a fix please.

Did you see above suggestion from me? It seems to have worked for me, my daughter and others. There was an iOS11.2.5 update yesterday, which hopefully fixes the issue as well - good luck !!

This issue is regularly happening to me. I have an iPhone SE, not sure what everyone else has. iOS is at 11.2.1, ie, up to date. I turned off and back on the Automatic time as was suggested and nothing changed.

I am having issues with iMessage - the blue texts. I don’t text many people that do not have iMessage so I don’t know if the issue exists with SMS as well but the blue iMessage texts are misplaced just about every other time I receive one

Many of my friend's who have early versions of iPhones, 7 and below, are experiencing this issue. I have an iPhone X and I haven't had this happen to me yet. So I wonder if that plays a role in why messages are out of order.

I’m having the same problem, my time and date are set automatically as well as the time zone. I have a 6s, my friend with a 6 plus is having the same issues, my husband with an SE also is having the issue. Apple it’s a problem! Please fix this!

It’s happening to me too. I have an SE and when I send a message the reply comes back above the one I send. It doesn’t happen all the time, but most of the time. And only since the last few days. Very weird. And annoying. And confusing.

This is happening to me as well. I am also having issues with Facebook or any other password protected webpage making me sign in every single time instead of remembering my info. I’m sick of the updates that make my phone not work as well as before. I wish we could decline some updates!!

I’m having the same problem and have been for several days. This is not a Date & Time issue. I’ve noticed that this is only happening to text messages from people that I know also have iPhones. Could it be that they haven’t updated their phones and that’s causing an issue?

My friends and I are all having this problem also 😩! And even further we have group message together and now it created another one and some of us get Answers on one and then some on another won..it is driving us crazy!!! 😡 Seems from what I read only people not having this problem are people with the iPhone X.😳
