How to Delete Messages on Your Xiaomi Phone

Modern phones allow you to store a virtually unlimited number of different SMS. But often, users face the question: of how to delete messages on the phone of Xiaomi. There can be many reasons for cleaning, from annoying ads to information inaccessible to prying eyes. The procedure is simple and does not require any special skills.

Clearing dialogs

Messages from a particular subscriber are in a common chain – a dialogue. That is, there is no need to search through the entire list of SMS that you have sent or received from one number. In the list, as a rule, first, you see only the last message, and in the expanded window – absolutely all.

1. To delete, open the folder “SMS/MMS” on the main screen. Chains can be sorted by date of writing, volume, and importance.
2. Find the desired one, and after a long press, a mini-menu opens with a confirmation of the deletion.
3. Click “Delete”. Done.

Both incoming and outgoing messages grouped by phone number are cleared.

Deleting individual SMS

If you need to remove several messages from a particular conversation, do the following

1. Open the correspondence, and click on the SMS.
2. A ribbon appears at the bottom: “Forward”, “Copy”, “Delete”, “More…” and there is a white circle next to each message.
3. We check the box for the materials you want to clean up. Now “Delete” and “Yes.

If you want to clear the whole chain this way, after the bottom menu at the top, click “Select all” and repeat the second part of point number 3.

Cleaning up social networking messages

Here everything is controlled by a particular social network and does not depend on the brand of the device. Since social network messages are internal network messages, the operating system, model, and year of manufacture of the smartphone do not apply to them. But, for example, in the popular FaceBook, the cleaning operation is similar to that of the “SMS/MMS” folder. Messages are deleted only by you. You can not influence their deletion in the interlocutor, not having access to the phone.
