Chat Messages setting keeps turning off for just one contact

[Christina Harvey]

My Samsung s21 Ultra keeps turning off the chat setting/read receipt but its only for one certain contact. Ive tried tuning the setting on and off, resetting my phone but nothing seems to help, anyone else have this issue?

clearing the storage of the app never worked.

Did you clear cache or data or both?

[Melchior82]

 I tried to clear only the cache..

but left the data intact so I didn't have to redo all my ringtones for my messages for contact...

so it did not work for me.. clearing only the cache.

I tried to clear both cache and data it didn't help..  😞   X-(
