Deleted Text Messages Still Show in Preview I have been deleting select text messages but what has been occurring is that the last text message deleted still shows on the text list previews. I would like the selected message to be completely deleted and no longer show the preview.

My message box is too enlarged When I text a long message my text box expands so large I cannot see the message I was responding to. It will not minimized or allow me to scroll back up to view the text. Is anyone else having this problem? It’s very minor but very frustrating. I attached a pic of the issue. I often type long messages but it did not used to take up my entire screen. I feel like the last update causes this.
