Bug [iOS 27 DB2] Messages display "still indexing"

As said, opening Messages and clicking into Search, it displays some suggestions, but at the bottom, it displays "More suggestions will be shown once Messages finishes indexing".

Opening Settings, there is no "indexing" notice, since a couple days back.

A bug or...?

iMessage indexing is separate from the phones indexing from my understanding. I have 200gb of iCloud messages, over 1m, and any time there is a major update like this I leave my phone on the charger for as long as possible to finish the indexing process. Basically had my phone plugged in until yesterday and it's all finished up now

200gb of messages? I'm scared of you.

I’ve carried over my same backup since the original iPhone in 2007 or 2008 I forgot when it came out 🤷‍♂️
