Why Can’t I Bump into Messenger?
Normally the text messages that you’ve sent on personal chats on Messenger can be bumped by you. When you bump a text message on Messenger chat, the message gets resend to the user without you typing and resending it.
However, in some cases, you may find that you’re unable to bump a message on Messenger chat. This happens when the message you’re trying to bump is locational sharing or about missed call notifications. When you’re trying to bump a previously shared location message, it won’t bump or get resend, but you’ll need to share your location once again with the user by resending it. Missed call notifications that appear on the chat screen are technically not messages but alerts therefore, they cannot be bumped.
If you’re trying to bump a normal text message and are unable to do so, it might be because of a glitch in the app. You can easily fix it yourself by restarting the application after closing it. If it doesn’t get fixed, you can also try to clear the cache data of Messenger and reinstall the app to fix it.
