If you’re like most people, you probably use your iPhone to send and receive text messages. But there are a few things you can do to make sure your texts don’t go out in a self-destructing mess.

  1. Make sure your phone is turned off and locked. This will prevent anyone from accidentally deleting or sending your text message.
  2. Use a strong password for your phone and for all of your other online accounts. This will help protect your texts from being deleted or stolen by someone who doesn’t have your password.
  3. Use an app that can help you keep track of how many messages you’ve sent and received in a day or week. This way, if something happens to your phone or you lose it, you’ll be able to check the numbers against the records that the app has set up for you.
