Deleting Multiple Images in imessage

Rbrylawski Im going to recommend you don’t take things so personally and take a step back. When people including myself point out that your post is Not helpful it is because we want Apple to understand that the issue is not being solved in this discussion/thread, and that your suggestions specifically is not helpful. People will respond when your suggestion isn’t working deal with it. I and I’m sure everyone else has used the link you provided or contacted Apple in some form to raise this issue. If you’re going to take criticism personally then stop posting

This helps. I forgot to mention this. Nice post, thanks.

I recommend everyone here still post the issue on Apple feedback. They do listen and maybe if they get enough complaints about removed features, they will bring them back. The thing that worries me is that it takes writing code which is a purposeful act to change the way things behave. That’s not terribly reassuring.

Why don't you understand we guys DON'T work for Apple. I am a user as you are a user as is everyone else posting on this forum. NO ONE ON THIS FORUM WORKS FOR APPLE. So we guys didn't mess up as we don't have anything to with Apple or iOS specifically.

Hey R. Brylawsky, that’s not actually any good. Let’s say I have a message string with a friend that’s got 3,873 exchanges (we talk a lot). And we’ve sent between ourselves 137 photos. And I want to delete them to save space. If I try it your way I will be doing it all day, because I have to scroll through for ages and wait for each old section to come up out of the cache again before I can put the little dot next to the photos. By the time I’ve selected 7 or 8 photos, I’m so far up the chain that iMessage starts to forget the last ones I dotted. If I accidentally press on a photo too long, it pops up and all my selections get unselected.

Why don’t you guys just admit you messed up and put the “multiple select from info list” function back? Like my handle, don’t take away good features !!

If you tap the contact's photo, then select the "i" you will see the thread details, including pictures. Choose the option under the first few pictures that says "Show All Photos". From there, you can choose "Select" on the top right of the screen and select and delete multiple pictures.

They really want their user to suffer deleting all those pictures one by one on iMessages. The other option is to buy their iCloud service to avoid storage issue.

You're welcome. We'll all get used to the new way to do things, until the next major iOS release, then people will lament the next round of changes. Happens every year. LOL

FYI, for some reason those images comes back and shows up in iMessages again

That's odd. Not one photo I've deleted from a text message have come back on my iPhone.

This is fine for messages what about photos? You used to be able to view all photos, select one or MORE, then delete. Not any more. I downloaded iOS 13.1.3, same problem! Help!

In the Photo App, you can most definitely still open any folder, choose Select. Tap the photos you want to choose for deletion, then, tap the Trash icon. That hasn't changed at all.

In photos you can still select and delete multiple photos, unfortunately in messages you can’t.

Yes you can delete multiple photos inside a text message and I detailed how to above.

Thank you! At least someone understands what I meant. I need that feature back.
