Can I create new seperate text message with same person; keep the old thread and start a new one?

Sometimes I want to keep a conversation thread, but don’t want it to continue on the same one. Is it possible to create a new one? The only way I know now is to delete the old thread. But there are times I want to reference it without scrolling back a long way.

What you are asking is not possible unless the other person has a another phone number and you have created a separate contact for that number. The feature that you recommend is an interesting one. Furthermore, You can suggest this feature directly to Apple by leaving a product feedback here 👉 Product Feedback - Apple
