Original Title: imessage cannot be turned on

Click here If you can’t turn on or sign in to iMessage or FaceTime on your iPhone - Apple Support

I’ve been experiencing this for the past few days with both apps. Very frustrating. After multiple trouble shoots, phone resets, iMessage and FaceTime resets. I finally found the issue. This fixed my issue and put everything back to normal.

Go to Settings > General > Date & Time > Turn off ‘Set Automatically’

Just put in your Date & Time. iMessage and FaceTime both linked by number successfully without me even having to click it in the settings.

Hope this helps, please let me know if it does!!

Tried it—still doesn’t work unfortunately.

I also have the same issue after 18.6.2 update. Very frustrating. I hope apple will do something about this. Maybe busy on the upcoming event?

Please help me with my iMessage I want to use email with my iMessage but isn’t working what I need to do please
