How to delete a conversation in WhatsApp on iPhone at the interlocutor's side - in detail?
Deleting a conversation in WhatsApp on an iPhone from both sides involves several steps, ensuring that neither you nor your contact can see the chat anymore. Here’s how to do it:
First, open the WhatsApp application on your iPhone. Navigate to the chat you wish to delete. Once inside the chat, tap on the name of the contact or group at the top of the screen. This action will take you to the chat details page.
On this page, you will see several options including 'Chat Settings'. Tap on 'Chat Settings' to open a new menu. In this menu, look for the option labeled 'Delete Chat'. Select 'Delete Chat'. You will be prompted with two choices: 'Delete for Me' and 'Delete for Everyone'.
To delete the conversation from both your side and your contact’s side, select 'Delete for Everyone'. This action will permanently remove the chat from both devices. Please note that this option is only available for messages sent within the last seven days. If it has been more than seven days since you sent or received a message in that chat, you will only see the 'Delete for Me' option.
After selecting 'Delete for Everyone', confirm your decision by tapping 'Delete'. WhatsApp will then remove the conversation from both your iPhone and your contact’s device.
It is important to remember that once a chat is deleted using the 'Delete for Everyone' option, neither you nor your contact will be able to retrieve the messages or media shared in that chat. Therefore, ensure that this is what you want before proceeding with the deletion process.
In summary, to delete a conversation in WhatsApp on an iPhone from both sides, open the chat, go to 'Chat Settings', select 'Delete Chat', and then choose 'Delete for Everyone'. This will permanently remove the chat from both devices involved in the conversation.
