[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1928150, member: 83420"] My wife regularly receives SMS messages on her iPhone 14 (iOS 16.3.1) regarding medical appointments principally from hospitals. These are SMS, not iMessages. The messages include a web link which takes her to a secure site where she must first confirm, name address and DOB. That then reveals the letter re her appointment along with other relevant info. Excellent security. What I'm interested in is how that SMS message self-deletes without trace after (usually) 48 hours. I fully understand the security necessity; but I'd like to know how a sender achieves such a thing. Needless to say, there is no trace of the message in "Recently Deleted" folder. Ian [/QUOTE]
