Help Why new messages are not showing in inbox

The commonest cause for this is if the phone's time or date is set wrong. Then the newly arrived messages appear to be much older than those already received, and get added way back in the inbox. Then unless you realise what's happening and think to scroll back you never see them in there.
This.

And frankly, speaking as an ex-user of GoSMS - it's really not very good. In fact, it's pants.

Get Textra or Chomp SMS - far better.

No. there's no date or time issue on the phone as I am regularly using task reminders and alarm there. I scrolled down to the bottom and searched by sender keyword too. but no result.
