Does Deleting Messages From Apple Watch Also Delete Them From iPhone?
So youâve gone on a deleting spree on your Apple Watch, clearing out messages to tidy things up. But wait, what happens to those messages on your iPhone? Are they gone forever too?
Nope, not at all! Deleting messages from your Apple Watch doesnât touch the messages on your iPhone. They stay put, safe and sound. So, breathe easy â you havenât lost anything!
However, it’s important to note that managing messages on your Apple Watch is a bit different than on your iPhone. You can’t just clear out individual conversations or all messages at once. Instead, you have to delete messages from each contact one by one. It might sound like a bit of a task, but itâs totally worth it to free up some space on your Apple Watch.
So, remember: your Apple Watch and iPhone handle messages separately when it comes to deleting. Keep this in mind, and you’ll be a message managing pro in no time!

But hey, technology can be quirky sometimes. If you notice that calls or messages are still getting through even after youâve blocked someone, it might be time for some tech troubleshooting. Try repairing your devices, or check if theyâre both connected to the internet properly. And if someone’s really persistent, changing their number to bypass the block, don’t hesitate to reach out to customer support and report it.
