Apple Watch Messages

Hello! I am trying to figure out how to mirror the text messages on my iphone and apple watch. When I delete a message off of my phone it does not delete it off of my watch. Is there a way to sync my phone and watch so that when I delete a text message off of my phone, my watch will reflect that so I don't have to delete it in two different locations manually?

Thanks!

Apple Watch, watchOS 4

Deleted messages in iPhone Messages app not syncing to Apple Watch My Apple Watch is setup to mirror my iPhone, but when I delete messages on my iPhone they still show up on my Apple Watch. I remember Apple made it possible to sync messages across devices awhile ago so I don't understand why this is happening. I've already unpaired my Apple Watch from my iPhone and repaired using a backup but still encounter the problem. Has anyone else experienced this and/or know of a fix?

Messages synchronised between iPhone and Apple Watch Hi there, I’ve noticed that if I delete a message from my iPhone, it doesn’t necessarily delete from my Apple Watch (and vice versa). Is there a setting that I need to enable for this to synchronise across devices? Thanks.

I'm afraid that's the way it works,there's no way to delete messages off phone and watch at the same time.
