How to select all attachments to delete in iPhone storage?


I was reviewing iPhone storage and I have a lot of attachments from text messages. I want to delete the attachments but I have to individually select each of them. Is there a way to just select all and then delete?

iPhone 11, iOS 16

Unfortunately, there is no "Delete All" button. Neither inside iPhone Storage > Messages, nor inside the settings for the conversation itself in the Messages app. Each attachment must be tapped.


The only solution is to delete the entire message.
