Unmute my messages?

Hi I chose to mute all my messages by clicking on something I have no idea how I got to- any chance you can tell me how to unmute them all now?


Thanks,

Hey Aza Jacobs,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I see that you've turned on a setting to mute messages and you're wanting to unmute that setting now. I'd be happy to help out.

In this situation, I'd like to give you a few articles to see if you recognize the feature you used:

Use notifications on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Manage notifications

To manage your notifications from the Lock screen or Notification Center:

  1. Swipe left over an alert or group of alerts.
  2. Tap Manage, then select from these options:
    • Deliver Quietly: These notifications appear in the Notification Center, but don't show up on the Lock screen, play sounds, or show a banner or badge icon.
    • Turn Off: This turns off all notifications for a specific app. To turn this back on, go to Settings > Notifications, select the app, and tap Allow Notifications.

You can also tap Settings to change your alert styles or alert settings for a specific app.


It also could be Do Not Disturb:
Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Check each of the steps provided in both articles and let me know.
Cheers!
