I'm trying to retrieve a deleted text conversation. The instructions say to go to messages, edit. I don't have an edit in my messages. I only have Edit Pins, Edit Name and Photo and Select Messages. Any advice?
one thing to note.. if you have Settings > Messages > Filter Unknown Senders switch turned on.. you won't see the Edit option up top of the message list. there will be a back button that looks like this: < Filters
Press that and out at the filter level, you'd have an option shown there for Recently Deleted
This is, of course, assuming that you are running iOS 16.. and, as muguy commented, the message/conversation was deleted while running iOS 16

Are you using the latest version of iOS? Did you delete the conversation after upgrading to the latest version of iOS?
If the answer to either is no, there is no way to recover your deleted conversation.
i only have Edit Pins, Edit Name and Photo and Select Messages. No Edit. I need to retrieve a conversation I accidentally deleted.
