Missing some Text messages

[doohsun]

For past couple of weeks I've been missing text msgs from certain contacts they received mine fine but i'm not seeing some of theirs back. Sometimes I even wonder if some users are seeing mine. I've been using the google messenger for the longest time after many recent updates i'm wondering if it had anything to do with it. So out of curiosity I decided to use the stock msg app from Samsung since than I've haven't seen any issue with missing text or people seeing my text I'm wondering if others are having similar issues with third party text msg apps or specifically with google messenger app.

There certainly are reports of S8 owners missing texts, although I believe it's also with the stock Messaging app: https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/galaxy-s8-missing-texts/

I had the same problem, using both the stock app and Textra. I finally did a factory reset and they now work again...

Same problem with not receiving some texts (EE UK)

Answer lies in my google sms app being put into "always sleeping apps" in my battery device maintance. Removed it and working fine again.
