@MarkD1 

You say text and messenger or just one of them?

Go into app manager and clear cache and data.

@MarkD1 

Can you uninstall updates and allow the app to update again.

@MarkD1 

It should say uninstall updates instead of having a delete option, as it's a system app and cannot be deleted.

Well done @MarkD1 

Not uncommon for updates to cause issues.
