iPhone Messages app reverting to all messages instead of staying on Known Senders filter

Messages app use to stay on Known Senders filter if selected. Now it reverts back to all messages every time you go out of the app and come back. I want it to stay on known senders like it did before the update. What is happening? This is super annoying. It defeats the entire purpose.

Yes. This is very annoying. I struggled with massive amounts of spam and political texts, like 10-20 a day until I figured out I could filter out unknown senders. Now it seems like Apple has handed the spam texters the keys to my door again. Thanks for the new upgrade Apple.
