My daughter's incoming message to me has a thumbtack next to it.

I have a Samsung Galaxy J2 Core Android 8.0.1 & in the text messaging app there's an icon of a thumbtack next to her incoming message to me (she has an iPhone I think) why the thumbtack?

Welcome to Android Central! Are you using the stock messaging app, or a 3rd party one (like Textra)? If you're using the Samsung messaging app, see this: www.samsung.com/in/support/mobile-devices/how-to-deactivate-pin-to-top-option-on-message-app/

You pin it to the top ? Does it look like my screen shot ?
