A short weird text message is available online and it can make you beg for Apple to fix the bug.

There is a way to fix it though:

  • You can answer with a simple ‘Hi’ to the sender
  • You can send the sender a Photo
  • The sender can send that mystery text message again, and the bug fixes itself. Until the messgae is sent again, from someone else.
  • Open the conversation with the sender in Mac’s Messages App and reply
  • Ask Siri to reply to the sender
