blurry text message background
when i take a screenshot of my text messages, you can read the other messages in the background. i’ve have had other people send a screenshot of a text message and the background is blurred and you cannot see other text messages but that one text. ive tried turning the reduce transparency on and off, it’s not working. also tried turning my phone on and off.

Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. We understand that you’d like to be able to take screenshot of a text message and have the background blurred. If you touch and hold the specific text message, it will show only that text and blur the background. When you take a screenshot, it will show exactly what shows on your screen. If the background is blurry when you take the screenshot, it should show exactly that. If the background is not blurry when you take the screenshot, you would need to create the blur by editing the photo in a photo app.
We hope this helps.

iMessage contact photo is clear on my phone, but blurry on other Was wondering if there is a fix for this? I upload a regular jpg image of myself as the iMessage contact image but on everyone else’s iPhone it appears blurry. It’s crystal clear on my phone. My wife and others have sent me screenshots where this is a blurry image and pixelated. The first image is what mine looks like on my phone. The second is my contact picture on everyone else’s.

iMessage profile photo blurry Hi, I have an up-to-date iPhone 13 mini (iOS 15.5). When I update my photo in iMessage, it will begin at a clear photo, but at some point becomes blurry. When I update the photo, I usually update it “everywhere”, however, it only appears blurry in iMessage. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
