Hi,
Here are a couple things you should double check to ensure iMessage is working properly on your iPhone.
1. Ensure iMessage is activated
Go to Settings > Apps > Messages and make sure iMessage is turned on. If it’s on but still not working, try toggling it off, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
2. Check Apple ID & Phone Number
Under Settings > Apps > Messages > Send & Receive, confirm your Apple ID is signed in and your phone number is listed under “You can receive iMessages to and reply from.”
