"Report Junk" Option for Spam iMessages Missing

[macrlz9]

iOS 26 introduced a feature to filter out Spam iMessages into its own category but the option to "Report Junk" that was in iOS 18 is missing... Anyone else?

I do still see the "Report Spam" button for SMS.

Same. Not seen the option since the beginning of iOS 26.

Thinking they are considering both spam & junk as the same thing.

Issue isn’t regarding the term junk vs spam. It’s that the option is no longer present for iMessage junk/spam messages in iOS 26.

Did reporting it ever do anything?

Odd, it lets me delete and report spam/junk. Did they fix it with the last beta?

About time Apple gives us such ability. Places like WinRed brought it upon themselves. 30-40 text messages a day is abuse! The election is over and the texts keep coming. The update can not come fast enough.

I wonder too; I've never heard any explanation of what the button actually did, if anything. Maybe it deletes it with fancy wording....
