Hello,


I am trying to delete imessages on my apple watch, series 3 with the latest version (4.1). I read in many forums that you swipe them left and then delete, but when i swipe them nothing happens. Any idea?

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 4.1

Hi


To delete a Messages conversation on your Apple Watch:


  • Open the Messages app on your watch:
    • When viewing the time, go to the Home screen (by pressing once on the Digital Crown) > tap on the Messages app icon.
    • Or use Siri (eg "hey Siri, open Messages").
  • When viewing the conversation list, swipe left on the conversation that you wish to delete > tap Delete / Trash.

Hi

Just received my apple watch 3 series and I can swipe left and delete individual messages..

You have to wait after swiping for the delete button to appear on the screen, then press it and the message disappears..

You are referring to deleting a Messages conversation, as described in my first reply, not individual messages, which cannot be deleted on Apple Watch.
