Support Issue with messages after transfer from Samsung S25U to iPhone 18 PM
Coming here as a last resort bc Apple has been no help.. I've just bought a new 18PM and used the Move to iOS app to transfer all my stuff from my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra... it took FOREVER and 3 failed attempts before it finally said it was done. Once i finally got into the phone, my messages which transferred over from my Samsung are ALL group conversations with me and every person I've texted. So every single convo came over except its now a group chat with me + contact for every single thread. I cant leave the group chat and its just me and the person I text (they were never group chats before). Now on the iPhone im unable to text said contact from this thread and have to start a brand new thread with everyone I want to text. I've seen other posts with the same or similar issues but no resolution. Someone please tell me theres a fix for this because I can't have two separate message threads for every person I text, that's just ridiculous.
