If you have iCloud enabled for Messages, whatever you mark as unread on one device will appear unread on your other iCloud-connected devices. The change also appears on iPadOS 16 for iPad and macOS 13 Ventura for Mac, which are still in beta. You can mark messages as unread starting in iOS 16. It's pretty crazy that Apple has just now made marking messages as unread a feature, considering it was eight years since we could mark messages as read, 11 years since iMessage hit the scene, 13 years since MMS was incorporated, and 15 years since the iPhone launched with SMS support. Marking messages unread is an effective way to fight this problem. If you don't have time to respond when you first read it, chances are you will completely forget about it.

Unfortunately that is the best answer I can give you since I don't know of a trick that forces the texting app to notify you of incoming texts while the receiving thread is open I personally hate it when I ask a question on a forum, and someone gives me a "you-don't-wanna-do-that, do-this-instead" answer. However, I myself got into a good habit of simply hitting the home button after I am done - that's all it took for my S4 to realize the app is no longer in focus and start alerting me again (also, a good battery-saving strategy overall, since some apps continue doing stuff when left in focus).

So if you are still not receiving notifications, make sure it's not a simple case of staring at your own thread while receiving your own (CASSETT) - I'm not entirely sure if there is a way to change that - on my phone that's just how text app works. That is why you need to exit the thread BEFORE the text arrives by hitting "back" (home button might not be enough to do the trick). IMPORTANT: The native texting app won't notify you of incoming messages when you have the thread open (even with the notifications on – that's a default behavior as there is no point in notifying you about incoming messages while you're looking at them). At this point I did receive the notification, but if you do not, restart the phone one last time and try texting yourself while doing the whole bailing-faster-than-a-hamster shimmy. Again, before it arrives, immediately exit the app. Restart the phone again (I know, it's a pain in the keester, but it's all in the restarts)ĩ. Turn the notifications ON in the app settings: (notification area gear icon to open Settings > More > Application Manager > All > Messaging > Show notifications (check it)Ĩ. You should still NOT receive the notification at this point, but by now you will have forced the phone to accept your own "notification off" setting (I love reverse psychology)ħ. Send yourself another message and before it arrives, immediately exit the app again. You should NOT receive the notification at this point.ĥ.

Send yourself the message and before it arrives, immediately exit the app by repeatedly hitting the "back" soft button (you need to do this fast – as soon as you hit Send). Turn the notifications OFF in the app settings: (pull the notification area down > touch the gear icon to open Settings > More > Application Manager > All > Messaging > Show notifications (uncheck it)ģ. But sometimes turning the settings back and forth won't take unless the confused device is restarted at a crucial part in the process, so here is what I did which finally fixed it for me:ġ. Turning them off and back on did precisely nothing too. None of the methods on this page worked for me - all of the suggested changes were already properly set.
