If you've already created an Apple ID but are still unable to use iMessage or other services, it's possible that the iMessage app is faulty. Here, we provide solutions to general iMessage errors and specifically to the problem of messages failing to send.
To fix iMessage issues, start by turning off iMessage, restarting your device, and relaunching the app.
Similar to other common glitches, a simple step is to turn off the app, reboot your device, and relaunch the app. To turn off iMessage: Go to Settings => Messages and toggle off iMessage.
Once iMessage is turned off, you can shut down your device, restart it, and go to Settings => Messages to toggle iMessage back on.
Check iMessage settings to ensure everything is configured correctly.
Sometimes, the issue with iMessage not working might be due to incorrect settings by the user. Check and adjust your iMessage settings to fix any messaging errors.
Navigate through Settings -> Messages -> Send & Receive to review and adjust your iMessage setup, including phone number and email authorization.
3. Verify your device's Internet connection
iMessage requires an internet connection to send messages. Ensure you have a stable connection; lack of Wi-Fi connectivity can hinder iMessage operations.
If you're still facing iMessage issues despite having an active Internet connection, consider tweaking your iPhone's DNS settings to resolve the problem.
Here are a few additional troubleshooting tips.
You can try signing out and back into iMessage, updating your iOS version, resetting network settings, creating a new Apple ID, or reaching out to Apple support for assistance in fixing iMessage errors.
