WhatsApp has become one of the most popular messaging platforms worldwide, allowing users to easily send texts, make voice and video calls, and share media files. However, there may be instances when you wish to delete certain messages for various reasons. Whether it’s a confidential conversation or simply clearing up space, we’ve got you covered with this comprehensive step-by-step guide on how to delete WhatsApp messages.

Deleting Individual Messages

If you only want to remove specific messages from a chat, follow these simple steps:

  • Open WhatsApp and go to the chat that contains the message you want to delete.
  • Locate the message you wish to remove and long-press on it.
  • Tap the trash bin icon that appears on the top bar of your screen.
  • A prompt will ask if you want to delete the message. Confirm by tapping “Delete for Me” or “Delete for Everyone.”

Keep in mind that deleting a message for everyone will only be successful if the recipient hasn’t read it yet. Otherwise, the message will remain visible on their device.

Deleting Multiple Messages

What if you want to delete multiple messages within a chat? WhatsApp provides an option to delete entire conversations, but if you prefer to keep the chat while removing specific messages, follow these steps:

  • Open WhatsApp and go to the chat that contains the messages you want to delete.
  • Tap the three-dot menu icon on the top right corner of your screen.
  • Select “More” from the dropdown menu.
  • Choose “Select Messages” and tap on each message you want to remove.
  • Once you’ve selected all the desired messages, tap the trash bin icon on the top bar.
  • Confirm the deletion by tapping “Delete” on the prompt that appears.

This method allows you to delete multiple messages in one go without deleting the entire chat history.

Deleting Entire Chat History

If you want to remove the entire chat history, including all messages, media files, and call logs, you can follow these steps:

  • Open WhatsApp and go to the chat you wish to delete.
  • Tap the three-dot menu icon on the top right corner of your screen.
  • Select “More” from the dropdown menu.
  • Choose “Clear Chat” from the options.
  • A prompt will ask if you want to delete all messages, media, and call logs. Confirm by tapping “Delete” or “Delete and Exit” if you also want to leave the chat.

Be cautious while using this method, as all chat data will be permanently deleted, and it cannot be undone. Make sure to back up any important information before proceeding.

WhatsApp offers several options for deleting messages to suit your specific needs. Whether you want to delete individual messages, multiple messages within a chat, or the entire chat history, this step-by-step guide provides all the necessary instructions.
