Yep. That's weird... It didn't take days last year. Texts that go back a couple years synced, but the older ones are missing. And none of my recent calls have showed up. :/
Do you use iCloud Messages? I don't. I used iPhone Quick Start to migrate to my new phone and texts for the last year came across just fine, that's my deletion setting on the phone.
Yea, iCloud messages. If I scroll through my messages, nothing is sorted chronologically. I have 2018 before 2016, and my 2019 and 2020 threads are just hidden, not missing. Weird
My old iPhone, which was on iOS 15, also is experiencing this bug once updated to 16 so I think its a iOS 16 bug
There is some sort of bug with moving large sized messages in iclouds backups. I have a support ticket open with apple for this very issue and it seems to be some sort of icloud/ios 16 issue on the 14's
Same here. Turned off iMessage and back on. But it is each time synching randomly each time I try. I toggled it off and on and it is synching some other messages but not those synched the first time I tried 😂. But for those not showing up, if I text the person/number it is showing the text history and then it is restored in my message app. So they are not lost but stuck somewhere… not sure I am clear…
I am using an iPhone 13 Pro, so it may be related to iOS 16. My threads all seem to be searchable just fine. It’s just when viewing the main list, it cuts off at 2017 (previously I could scroll all the way to the bottom and see that they started at 2012). However, my search results go back to 2012 and all of the expected messages are still there. Nothing appears to be missing. Just not displayed in the main list.
This is what I am experiencing too with my text messages. The only thing that might be different vs some of you is that about 10 years ago I was using my work phone as my personal phone so there was a mix of personal and pro text on my pro number. A few years ago I bought my own phone, personal phone, with a personal phone number. Both phones were connected to my same iCloud account but I was preventing personal messages to be received on my pro phone and vice versa (you can set this up in the message settings). Since last week I have only my 14PM with 2 sims (physical and eSim) and I receive both personal and pro texts on the 14PM on each line. But the thing is that it is not showing all my pro/perso text messages I received on both phones with the same iCloud account. Actually they are there somewhere (maybe in the upside down world😉), as when I want to send a message to someone not in my message app thread anymore I can still see the history of messages we exchanged and after that the thread is adding up to the app. Anyways whenever I go to my message app and search messages received before 2021 it is always showing different threads… IT MAKES ME NUTS GUYS!
