Got an annoying link in your messages on your iPhone 13 that you just want to get rid of? Fear not, for it’s actually pretty simple to delete unwanted links from your messages. After reading this brief overview, you’ll be a pro at keeping your messages link-free.<\/p>\n
Before diving into the steps, let’s quickly touch on what we’re trying to achieve here. We want to remove any unwanted links that have been sent to us via text message, iMessage, or any other messaging app on our iPhone 13. This can help declutter your message threads and keep things tidy.<\/p>\n
The first step is to open the Messages app on your iPhone 13.<\/p>\n
Once you’ve opened the app, you’ll see all of your message threads. Find the one that contains the link you want to delete.<\/p>\n
Next, locate the specific message that contains the link you want to delete.<\/p>\n
Keep in mind that you can only delete messages from your end. The message with the link will still be visible to the person who sent it or any other recipients.<\/p>\n
Now, tap and hold the message that contains the link.<\/p>\n
A menu will pop up with various options like "Copy," "Speak," and more. <\/p>\n
From the menu that appears, select "More."<\/p>\n
This will put you into edit mode, where you can select specific messages to delete.<\/p>\n
After selecting "More," you’ll see a small circle to the left of the message. Tap on it to select the message, then tap on the trash icon in the bottom left corner.<\/p>\n
Remember, this action cannot be undone. Once you delete the message, it’s gone for good.<\/p>\n
After completing these steps, the message containing the link will be deleted from your iPhone 13. The link will no longer clutter up your messages, and you’ll have a cleaner conversation thread.<\/p>\n
No, you cannot delete just the link itself. You will need to delete the entire message that contains the link.<\/p>\n
No, when you delete a message, it only deletes it from your device. The sender will still have the message on their device.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, once you delete a message, it cannot be retrieved.<\/p>\n
While you can’t block links entirely, turning off "Preview Links" in Settings > Messages can prevent the automatic generation of link previews.<\/p>\n
Yes, these steps should work for most iPhone models running a recent version of iOS.<\/p>\n
Deleting links in messages on your iPhone 13 is a straightforward process that can help keep your conversations tidy and organized. Whether it’s a spam link you never asked for or just a link you no longer need, following the steps outlined in this article will help you manage your messages effectively. Remember, once a message is deleted, it’s gone for good, so always double-check before you hit that trash icon. Keeping these tips in mind will ensure a seamless message management experience. So go ahead, give it a try, and enjoy your clutter-free messaging space on your iPhone 13.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
