Recently deleted messages

I have IOS 16.1.1 downloaded on both iPhone and iPad. I can see recently deleted messages on my iPad but the option does not show on my iPhone. How can I access them on the iPhone.

iPhone 11

Hello Beachman54,


If you have deleted messages on the iPhone, then it will show. You can locate it by completing the steps listed here: Delete and recover messages on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support that are also listed below.


Retrieve a deleted message or conversation

  1. "In Messages, tap Edit.
  2. Tap Show Recently Deleted .
  3. Choose the conversations with the messages you want to restore, then tap Recover.
  4. Tap Recover Message or Recover [Number] Messages."


Best regards
