Help! I look on my children's text threads and realize that I only receive a few of the messages that I should as flagged texts in my app. How do I fix that? thanks!

    I got the parent messenger app, and all I get is a "whoops something went wrong , we were not able to activate flagged messages" error. When I try to sync messages on my kid's phone by going to message settings and then troubleshooting, it says "failed to syncronize some settings".

    How in the world do i get this parent messenger app to tell me ANYTHING AT ALL!!!!

    When I try to go to the contacts part of the parent messenger app the error that was there for the flagged messages is still there, and won't go away, or let me add or block contacts etc….

    Super unhappy with the parental control on this phone.
