How to quickly delete images in the iOS 8 Messages app

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-quickly-delete-images-messages-thread-ios-8' title="How to quickly delete images in the iOS 8 Messages app"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/field/image/2014/10/iphone_6_messages_attachments_view_hero.jpg?itok=m_n291Xq' />[/url]</p> <p>Prior to <a href="http://www.imore.com/ios-8" title="iOS 8 news, rumors, speculation">iOS 8[/url], deleting images in individual message threads was tricky business. There wasn't an easy way to view all of them at once which made deleting more than one at a time a pretty tough task. Luckily, the details view in iOS 8 changes all of that and makes it super simple to delete lots of images and attachments at once, an incredibly useful trick if you need to free up some storage space in a hurry!</p> <!--break--> <h2>How to delete multiple images at once in the iOS 8 Messages app</h2> <ol><li>Launch the <strong>Messages app</strong> on your iPhone or iPad running iOS 8 or higher. </li> <li>Tap on the thread you'd like to clear images from in order to open it. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>Details</strong> at the top right. </li> <li><strong>Press and hold</strong> on one of the images you'd like to delete under the <strong>Attachments section</strong>. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>More</strong> in the popup menu. </li> <li>Select all the images and attachments you'd like to delete. </li> <li>Tap on the <strong>Delete button</strong> in the bottom right when you've got them all selected. </li> <li>Tap on <strong>Delete Messages</strong> in the popup menu to confirm the delete. </li> </ol><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/how-quickly-delete-images-messages-thread-ios-8' title="How to quickly delete images in the iOS 8 Messages app"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2014/10/delete_images_messages_app_howto1.jpg?itok=nkNiR6U8' />[/url]<a href='http://www.imore.com/how-quickly-delete-images-messages-thread-ios-8' title="How to quickly delete images in the iOS 8 Messages app"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2014/10/delete_images_messages_app_howto2.jpg?itok=Lfa3cX88' />[/url]</p> <p>That's all there is to it! The images you chose to delete will no longer be saved in the Messages app, eating up space. You may have noticed that when you highlight multiple images, you also get an option to the left of the trash can to save them. This is a great way to save multiple images at once in a messages thread, so keep that in mind as well!</p> <p>Now give it a try and let me know how it works for you!</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-27484"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3f2d6049/sc/4/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
