Texting problem

Where did the “Delete All” option go for a text thread? Ever since the last update, I have to manually click each text instead of having the option to delete the whole thread at once.

You can always delete the entire thread as this has been always available. Open the Messages app and you will see the list of message threads. Locate the message thread that has all the messages from your security camera. TOUCH the message thread and SWIPE LEFT. This will reveal the option to DELETE. Tap on DELETE icon and this action will delete the entire thread. See image below:
