It’s possible that iMessage isn’t activating because your iPhone is experiencing a software crash, which can usually be fixed by turning it off and back on.
If iMessage says “waiting for activation” after you’ve connected to data or Wi-Fi and chosen the correct time zone, try restarting your iPhone. I recommend turning on the switch next to Set Automatically so your iPhone can set your time zone based on your current location. Make Sure Your Date & Time Zone Are Set CorrectlyĪnother common reason why iMessage says “waiting for activation” is because your iPhone is set to the wrong time zone. Go to Settings -> General -> Date & Time and make sure your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. Wait a couple seconds, then tap the switch again to turn Airplane Mode back off. You’ll know Airplane Mode is on when the switch is green. Open Settings and tap the switch next to Airplane Mode to turn it on. This could fix a minor technical glitch inhibiting your iPhone’s ability to connect to your wireless data or Wi-Fi network. Turn Airplane Mode On & Back OffĪfter turning on Cellular Data or Wi-Fi, try toggling Airplane Mode off and back on. If Cellular Data is already on, try toggling the switch off and back on again. Go to Settings -> Cellular Data and turn on the switch next to Cellular Data. If you don’t have access to Wi-Fi, you can also activate iMessage using Cellular Data.
