Many
iPhone Xs/8/7/6 users after upgrading their
iPhone to iOS 12 are facing issue with iMessage that when they send message to one iphone
, it goes to other iphone. Soon after tapping the send, you can see the contact
name on the top change from one name to the other. The iMessage Is seen only
when all users use same AppleId.
Even
the replies from iMessage are mixed up. And sometimes the users is not able to
send iMessage to one particular contact. Now if you send group message all of
them work just fine but only direct individual messages are delivered to wrong
contacts.
The
iMessage issue is surely to do with iOS 12 as in iOS 11 it was never seen with
iMessage. The issue is so annoying that user have no idea who is sending the
text or who is supposed to receive the text in iMessage.
Why such iMessage behavior:
It
seems like that Apple is trying to force every individual user to set up their
own Apple ID and then connect them through the new Family Sharing feature. So
for permanent fix for the issue is to create separate ids for each users and use
apple id on all devices used by one users only.
Solution
for iMessage delivering to wrong contact :
As said
this seems to be due to Apple new feature to support family sharing and you should
create seprate apple id for each users. However there are workaround that you
should tyr:
Fix 1:
Clear the thread or delete all its
history. You should also delete and add the contact again. This may fix the
issue for a while but may happen again.
Fix 2: open
Settings->Notifications->Messages, you will see a setting for
Notification Grouping-> by default it is Automatic. Turn it off, and then
all of your messages will show individual notifications and not just a single
notification if you have multiple Messages.
