On most of my threads on messages, I can tap on an individual message, & it shows save, copy or more. Selecting “more” allows me to delete that message. I have other messages which do not show ”more” as an option & gives me no way to delete an individual message on the thread. Sometimes it shows reply, copy & translate. How do I delete these messages?
