    iPhone XS Max How Do I Save All iMessage Pics/Videos in Bulk?

    My iMessage app is taking up like 40GBs on my Max, and I'd like to clean that up a bit. Unlike WhatsApp, iMessage doesn't save everything you receive into the camera roll. Is there an easy way to just export all pics and videos? If not, what's the best option?

    Hello everyone. I've been thinking about Catalyst and Apple's reasoning behind it.
