    Tap a chat. Find the chat you want to edit on your CHATS list, and tap on it. This will open the conversation in full-screen.
  4. 4
    Tap and hold the message you want to delete. Find the chat message you want to delete in the conversation, and long-press on the message bubble to see your options.
  5. 5
    Tap Delete for everyone. This option will delete the selected message from the chat conversation.
    • Alternatively, you can select Delete for myself. This option will only delete the message from your own device. This way, your contact can still see the message on their phone, tablet, or computer.
    • If you want to delete a message sent by somebody else, you can only delete it for yourself. You can't delete others' messages for everyone.
