This option can be checked to delete locked messages with the thread. Locked messages have been talked about in another video, if you'd like to learn more about them please reference that video.Press down on the word 'Delete', it will be written in white.
- 9If you did not check the option to delete the locked messages, they will not be deleted. Alternatively, we can delete multiple threads at once. To clarify, we are calling each message a thread because there are multiple messages, or a "thread" of messages in each chat.Press the icon marked as 'OK' on the right side of the box, this will delete the entire thread.
