Groupchat won’t let me iMessage in iOS 18

So last week my friend in this chat had a problem where he could only send texts despite being able to iMessage everyone and every other chat. Well, I accidentally did the iOS 18 update which I knew was too ‘new’ and now I have his problem lol. Any ideas? Can’t even leave a chat like in 17; can only block and delete.

Do a network reset. I had the same problem, and the guy at the Genius Bar did that, and now it’s solved.

Yh, that’s what I was thinking.

Does that reset all Wi-Fi’s? Just wondering.
Edit: Yes, it will, and I’ve saved all network passwords I’ll need.

Also, didn’t work sadly… oh well, probably just gonna make a new chat.

First, turn off iMessage/reset network settings, then turn iMessage back on.

That has not solved it sadly.

The only other thing I got is signing out of your Apple ID, then signing back in! There might be a bug in the update, and maybe have to wait until a new update comes out to fix the bug.
