MMS Problems

[bencheatsatpoker]

I am consistently missing MMS messages across devices. The problem started once I got an apple watch (I've had messages go to iphone and mac for a few years without issue). I've tried changing settings, restarting phone, etc.

Has anyone else had this issue? Any obscure suggestions to fix it?

I have seen no recognition by Apple of MMS issues. However, count me in as someone experiencing this problem. I can send MMS messages, but as of 14.2 (and a carrier settings update maybe around the same time) I am unable to receive any MMS messages. I have tried updating to 14.3 beta 3 and that didn't help. I've tried a Network Settings reset and that didn't help. I called my carrier yesterday and they pointed me to Apple. I chatted with Apple support and they pointed me to my carrier and said if it was widespread the carrier could contact Apple. I just got off the phone with my carrier again and they indicated that they have multiple customers impacted by this issue and that it is widespread.

This is creating some large communication challenges when messages are not being received. I'm disappointed that I've seen no recognition of an issue (other than on iPhone 12 series devices).

Anyone else seeing this? Can we get some traction on this and some recognition that something much larger is going on?

I just received several MMS messages that had obviously been sent days ago. They all came in at the same time: about 2:46p CST. I can tell that there are probably some missing, but I'm hoping the issue has been resolved. We'll see.

For years, I haven't been able to receive MMS. I always get sent a link to a portal where I can view the image.
Due to receiving no more than one or two MMS per year, I never went out of my way to fix it but I imagine it's somewhat annoying if you rely on them on a regular basis.
