Iphone duplicating messenger group chats

Every time I click on a group chat in messenger on my iphone 11 running, in ios 16.5.1, it creates a new chat and doesn’t open the old one. Everyone in the chat gets a new group chat message. I have to use my PC to delete the chats.

Please advise.

Can’t find established group chats when typing who to send message to. This problem started after updating to IOS 16. Now whenever I go to share a link and click share then go to compose the message and I’m typing the name of the group chat it’s going to, the already existing group chats don’t appear anymore. Also happened if i go to Imessage and try to compose a new message to a group chat. It will only show me individual contacts I have. If i select all the members in a preexisting group chat the old messages come up and I can send the message. Anyone know how to fix this?

Why can't I see group Messages on my iPhone? I am in a group chat with a group of friends, all of whom use iPhones, and I am not seeing messages sent in the chat. I know that I am still in the chat, but I cannot see when my friends text something. I have already tried everything that I have seen online, such as resetting my phone and ensuring that RCS and MMS are on, so I am not sure what to do. My MacBook also has the same issue, where I cannot see messages in the chat that I know is active. What should I do? [Re-Titled By Moderator]
