Messages automatically deleting from iPhone Iphone XR, 18.0 - I keep it updated, Keep Messages is set on forever. Almost every time I check recently deleted messages, I find many messages (sometimes 17 or so from one person) with varying days until deletion. Messages are saved to iCloud, where I have 41G unused. Any advice? Thank you.
