Prior to updating to iOS 13 I used to be able to delete many photos/attachments that accumulated in iMessages by clicking the "info" button scrolling to photos, pressing "more" and tapping on multiple items and then deleting them.

Now it seems like that functionality is gone.

I know that in a message thread you can force press a photo, click "more" and swipe up/down with 2 fingers, but that is not the same as what I described above.
Going through Settings -> iPhone Storage -> Messages -> Review Large Attachments is also not the same thing because that sorts the attachments based on size and not date or message thread.

Does anyone know how to mass delete items within the Messages app?
