One particular message won’t delete I have a iPhone 14 pro with iOS 16.0.2. In messages, I delete my messages to keep my inbox clean but there is one particular message that just doesn’t delete. All other messages and conversations gets deleted without any problem by swiping left and hitting the garbage can. I am able to delete other messages in that conversation, but with that message there, I can’t delete the whole conversation by swiping left and hitting the garbage can. The whole conversation comes back. I did not change any setting at all. The problem just suddenly appeared. Please help me solve this issue.
