So this just started randomly this morning. The phone started buzzing about once per minute racking up SMS notifications. Now it just says “9+ unread SMS”. I checked SMS, nothing new. I checked Signal and Beeper. I checked my Notification Log app. There’s nothing.
As I was getting ready to post my initial query, I learned that I had been added to a group SMS chat. I can’t see the group chat messages on my MK but the notifications are still racking up. I tried restarting the phone with no luck. The chats don’t show up on my phone and I don’t see any way to clear out the notifications.

@bone_naga Are you not seeing any messages in the SMS apps? Just notifications?
That is correct. I have no visible SMS messages, but the lock screen shows “9+ unread SMS” which is pretty frustrating since without being able to clear them, I can’t see when a new SMS message comes in.
They seem to all stem from a group chat I was added to but I can’t see any of the group SMS messages and they don’t show up in the message app.
Also, this is totally unrelated but since I have you and I know you can reach out to the support team, I have a defective screen cover (the adhesive layer is separating from the protective layer, which cause air bubbles and allowed dirt and hair to get underneath the protector). I reached out to customer support but haven’t received a response.

Hey for anyone else that runs into this, I installed a new messages app from F-Droid that supports MMS. I was able to view my group text messages and that cleared out the notifications.
