Delete FB Messages

How to Delete a Facebook Message




There are plenty of good reasons to delete the occasional Facebook message. Perhaps you’re planning a surprise birthday party for your partner or sharing an important password. We’re not here to judge the reasons why, just to show you how. So, here’s how to delete a message in Facebook Messenger.

But first, an important caveat: deleting a message only removes it from your account. It doesn’t get deleted from the recipients’ inbox. Once you press send, the message is out there. Deleting it won’t take it back (unless you can get them to delete it too).
