Text messages
I no longer have all the options to do more when pushing down in a text message. It just shows delete. I use to be able to forward to an email or even copy. Why can’t I no longer do that?

Greetings Mia-81,
Your profile shows that we’re working with an iPhone running iOS 16, so that’s what our steps will be for.
When you press and hold on a message and then tap ‘More’ you should see a trash can at the bottom left and an arrow at the bottom right. If you tap the arrow it will copy that message into a new text message.
If you’re wanting to send the text of a message as an email you can choose to copy the text when pressing and holding on it instead of tapping more, then pasting the text into an email in the Mail app.
Let us know if that allows you to send an email.
Thanks.
