Why am I getting texts late?
I just got an iphone about a month ago. I have AT&T and I use my at home Wi-Fi when I'm at home. I get texts hours later and sometimes two or three days later. It's causing problems with my job and friends since they think I'm ignorin them lol.
Text messages come through the voice channel, not data or Wi-Fi. If you turn off data and voice, you can't get messages until you turn it back on. Third party text apps are the exception.
By chance do your friends have Verizon? Verizon messages seem to come hours after they are sent.

- Why is my iphone receiving texts late? I keep getting texts late, and i realized that as soon as i get home everyday (once i get into wi-fi signal) i receive text messages that people sent me from all throughout the day. Now it's not all my texts but i think i receive texts late from people with iphones. What is this problem and is there a way to fix it?
- Why is my iPhone 5 receiving messages late? So I've recently gotten a T-mobile iPhone 5 & it's been fine the first month but outta no where my messages started to come in late. Sometimes 2-3 hours later. I tried everything from soft and hard reset. Anyone know the problem or how I can fix this? Is it the phone, or service problem?
- Why is my iPhone 4 receiving text messages late? I have an iPhone 4, I've had it for just a year. The past month or so, sometimes I'll receive a message. However, when I check the time it was received, it was usually 5 or 10 minutes ago, today I just got one from 18 minutes ago and it only just notified me now. It's starting to bug me a lot, can anyone tell me how to resolve this problem? The phone is also running the most current software, I always do updates (even though it steals all of my storage, grrr).
