Video won’t delete

I was sending videos this weekend. The videos would not load. I deleted them and rested the process.

now I am unable to delete the text message and the videos.

Why?

Ive wiped out my phone and reboot it. Nothing is working

Any ideas?

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 16

Hey there Rube239,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. To get started, are you attempting to delete the message using the steps listed in the resource below: Delete messages on iPhone - Apple Support


Delete messages on iPhone
In the Messages app , you can delete messages and entire conversations from your device. 

With Messages in iCloud, anything you delete from iPhone is also deleted from your other Apple devices where Messages in iCloud is turned on. See Use Messages in iCloud.

Note: Deleting messages changes only your own Messages conversations, not those of your recipients. To retract a message you sent accidentally, use undo send instead.

Delete a message
1. Touch and hold a message bubble, then tap More.
2. Select the message bubbles you want to delete, then tap the Delete button.

Delete a conversation
1. In the Messages list, swipe left on the conversation, then tap the Delete button.


If so, we'd recommend reaching out to Apple Support directly at this link here: Get Support - Apple


We hope that's able to help.


Best regards.
