How do you mark a text as unread on iPhone 11?

Answered by John Hunt

To mark a text as unread on an iPhone 11, you have a few options. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Swipe right on the chat: On your iPhone 11, find the chat or message thread that you want to mark as unread in your messaging app. Once you locate it, swipe right on the chat from left to right. This action will mark the chat as unread, and it will appear with a blue dot next to it indicating that it is unread.

2. Long-press and select “Mark as Unread”: Another way to mark a chat as unread is by long-pressing the chat or message thread. Press and hold your finger on the chat until a pop-up menu appears. From the menu, choose the option that says “Mark as Unread.” This will instantly mark the chat as unread.

3. Using the “Edit” feature: If you have multiple messages or chats that you want to mark as unread, you can use the “Edit” feature in your messaging app. Start by opening the app and navigating to the conversation list. Tap on the “Edit” button located at the top of the screen or look for the ellipsis (•••) symbol, often found in the upper-right corner of the screen. Once you enter the edit mode, you can select multiple chats by tapping on them. After selecting the desired chats, look for the option that says “Mark as Unread” at the bottom of the screen and tap on it. This will mark all the selected chats as unread simultaneously.

By following these steps, you can easily mark texts as unread on your iPhone 11. This can be useful when you want to revisit or respond to a message later, ensuring it doesn’t get lost among other messages.
