iOS 7 Deleting Messages

Hey everyone, so I downloaded iOS 7 when it came out and I noticed a new thing how it stores your messages to your phone and it takes up space. That's fine with me but the only problem is that everytime I try deleting a conversation it deletes it but I try pressing on a different convo it either doesn't open or it freezes. But if it does open it's a blank convo. So I hard reset my phone or just restart it thinking it'll solve the problem but it doesn't. Instead the messages are still there and it's like I never deleted them. Any tips or help? Thanks guys I appreciate it.

I just updated to IOS9 after having the problem mentioned in this thread and being unable to delete messages for YEARS. Well, when my phone turned on after updating, the message app is frozen and yadda yadda, we all know the rest. I don't know if/when the app will unfreeze and if/when I will be able to text again. Did this happen to you before it was fixed? Or, was it fixed immediately? I am hoping that my phone is just working out some kink right now and then when the app unfreezes my issue will FINALLY be resolved, but I'm not holding my breathe.

I was only having the problem before I updated. Once I updated to iOS9, the problem was fixed completely. Haven't had an issue since. I'm sorry updating didn't help you 😟
