this was the fix for me. I opened phone link, clicked on settings, and under features, i clicked the drop down for messages. I made sure the toggle for ON was checked. and then i selected "show replies from group chats as individual messages"

all of a sudden i started getting my messages.

Hope this works for anyone looking!

    Same issues here. Can send but not receive all day long. Read the response provided for the issues addressed, but this does not answer the question. Big question is...Why release something that is "half-baked"? Windows Phone Link serves no benefit or purpose at all when connected to and iPhone. My advice. Remove the iPhone option until Windows gets their issues fixed, whether it be the windows software or Apple compatibility resolve between Microsoft and Apple.

    Ohhhh I had that turned off as advice from a recent security update... there is some malicious software going around that can infect the device from the message previews. Can't remember the name think it started with a GIF. Either way thank you kindly for the response
