NO LIVE THIS WEEK (taking some down time ☀️)

But… you can check out my Instagram Live from this past Wednesday here! Just scan the code and watch!

How can I get to deleted texts to review them?

First, you’ll need to make sure you’ve got the text filter on in settings.
Settings > messages > filter unknown senders

Then, go back to your messages and you’ll see “filter” on the top left. Click that and a new list of options appear - including recently deleted texts. Tap that and you’ll be able to review deleted messages and either delete or restore them.

BONUS! Now that you have a filter, you can filter your messages! I like showing “unread messages” only - that makes my text area much clearer! 🤓

Hey Siri… where did I park?

Retrieving Your Parking Spot

What did you think of today's issue?

😍 Total fan! 

😕 Meh - it's ok

👎 Didn't click with me

I occasionally partner with affiliates where commissions may be earned based on clicks and/or purchases. Affiliate links and commissions help me continue to do what I do and provide free content - and, don't worry, I'd never promote something I didn't personally use and love! ✌🏼❤️🤓
