How To Permanently Delete Messages On Apple Devices
Users looking to manage their messages on Apple devices can now understand the process of permanently deleting them, ensuring they are removed from all linked devices.
Apple has clarified that when Messages in iCloud is activated, deleting a message or conversation on one device will result in its deletion from all other devices signed in with the same Apple ID.
However, it is essential to note that this deletion process only affects the user’s own devices.
Messages, attachments, and conversations cannot be removed from the devices of other individuals involved in the conversation.
When messages and attachments are deleted, they are moved to a Recently Deleted folder, where they remain for 30 days.
Users can choose to permanently delete these items before the 30-day period expires.
