No Text Box in iMessage Group Chat-All iPhones in Chat-Tried deleted Thread getting new message did not fix

Hello everyone, I'm having an issue with a group chat in iMessage on iPhone and iMac. The bar where you type your messages is missing. I can see new messages coming in but I cannot reply from my phone. The other members of the group chat are all using iPhones and it seems to be only me having this issue, and only with this specific group chat. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? My phone and computer are both up to date on software. I've tried restarting the phone, quitting the app on my phone, deleting the thread and having others send messages but nothing has worked so far. Any help would be much appreciated.

iPhone 14 Plus

Having the exact same trouble on iPhone SE, iOS 17.5.1.


Only one group chat is having the problem. I keep deleting it and re-adding everyone, able to use a text box once, then after first person replies, I have no more text box.


Working fine on MacBook, for the same group chat. Just, this one group chat is broken on iPhone. It's the largest group text chat I have on my phone, with 5 other people in it. All 5 people are using iPhones.
