Many iPhone
users after upgrading to latest iOS 11.3 are facing a problem with message app
while deleting a message conversation. The new iOS 11.3 update added a feature to
message that it will now ask if you're sure you want to delete a text
message/iMessage once you choose the delete option. It is possible that some
users might have found these preventive steps from Apple against accidental
deletion of messages but at the same time since iOS never had this option
before, so many users who are in habit of deleting messages directly are
finding this as really annoying.
Even
when tried to find in iOS 11.3 setting, searching through the settings to
remove this deletion confirmation, but does not seems that any such option
exists. There is no direct way to shut off the confirmation message while
deleting any message or iMessage.
When
contacted to Apple support
senior tech
confirmed that this is not a bug but a feature and there is no way to turn it
off as of now. It could have been better if Apple had added an option to
disable or enable the confirmation message to delete a conversation messages.
As for some users it can be highly irritating and unnecessary.
One workaround to stop seeing the confirmation message on deleting the message is to Select the edit option in message app and than tick mark all the messages you want delete and finally delete them all together. This way you should not see any prompt for confirmation to delete message.
