How to mark an iMessage as unread in iOS 16
Imagine: You're out and about, busy as a bee. You get a text. You have no time to craft a thoughtful response to the text, but you just reallywant to see what it's about. You open the text, read it, and swear you'll reply later. You never reply.
It happens more often than we'd like to admit. And, for years, iPhone users have been begging for a quick fix from Apple. Folks, we've finally gotten it with iOS 16: the ability to mark messages as unread. Hallelujah!
Here's how to do it, so that the next time you say you'll get back to a text, you actually mean it.
