TBH, while I think the iMessage service is invaluable, the app itself is often buggy for me. On OS X, it often hangs w/ the spinning beach ball when attempting text input, the iCloud sync can be spotty, and the cardinal sin, on my iPhone X, there are inexcusable screen draw bugs w/ orientation rotation, or w/ the keyboard popping up to type....so I am not entirely surprised. It is an app in need of a good overall bug hunt.
