I can’t seem to be able to select to delete bulk pictures /videos in iMessage any more. Use to be able to tap a persons picture in iMessage, click on info and go from there. I can still see all the pictures that have been sent but no way to select multiple and delete. Am I missing something?

That area of iOS is really broken. In 12.4.1, you could do it, along with the pictures being LIVE and gifs playing. In 13, they show as live but are not and if you peek a few photos in this view, you can no longer scroll to see more and it crashes. Along with not being able to delete more than 1 picture at a time.

No, you’re not missing anything. It’s not there.

They didn’t even have the option to delete there until just some recent betas. Not sure why they changed all that there and either removed some of these features or broke them in one way or another.
