How to Delete Messages on iPhone

So how to delete text messages on iPhone?

We all know how to delete an email or remove a notification from our lock screens. But deleting a text message on an iPhone is a bit more complicated. Apple made deleting the whole chat with a person very easy, but deleting a single text requires more steps than just a swipe-right.

How do we delete them then? This quick step-by-step guide will help you out:

How to Delete a Single Message

1. Go to the Messages app and choose a conversation where you want to delete a text.
2. Open it and tap on a desired message then hold it for a sec.
3. From the pop-up menu, choose 'More'.
4. Tap on a trash icon 🗑️ in the bottom left corner and choose 'Delete Message'.

You're halfway there.

How to Delete a Conversation

1. Choose conversation you want to delete and swipe it to the left.
2. Tap the 'Delete icon' and confirm it.

How to Delete Several Conversations at Once

1. Tap 'Edit' then 'Select Messages'.
2. After you picked all the conversation tap 'Delete' and confirm.

Make your choice.

Done! Now you know how to delete texts, voice messages, whole chats, and all the spammy stuff in your Messages app. Trust me; your iPhone will free up a lot of space after you delete those messages, images, and videos.
