Prior to IOS 18, when I deleted messages on my Apple Watch Series 7, they were deleted only there. Now with IOS 18, the entire thread of messages gets deleted on my iPhone as well. Is there a fix or setting so it won’t delete from my iPhone as well. I have to keep recovering the messages from deleted messages. Thank you.
iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 18

People had been demanding it from Apple almost since the beginning of the Apple Watch. So, this is the "fix." Can you change it? No.
You can let Apple know what you'd like to see here:
Where must we put those for a higher upgrade of a watch? Mines at eight and I never had this issue until I updated so they need to fix it.
So frustrated! I have work texts that are completely gone because of this and other important texts.
Yes, I did that, but messages are on my watch again (ugh).
CORRECTION: That will hide it on the WATCH.
I don’t see an option to dismiss something on my watch. Please do not respond in a condescending manner.
Going through the same thing. I made sure all
I made sure all functions are on or off
Done all the things it asked
It started happening last week when I updated to ios18
It’s doing it to my new 10 watch
i just got it
it started happening when I updated to iOS 18
This has never worked for me unfortunately
APPLE PLS CHANGE THIS!!!!!!! It drives me absolutely crazy. i hate it, i just want to delete messages on my watch NOT my phone. Please fix it
"I don’t want a million txts threads on my watch! It makes it hard to scroll thru and keep up with convos to ppl that I txt daily"
Right????!!!! OMGosh, how absolutely frustrating!!! 😡😡
It is not deleted on my iPad or my MacBook Air. You are incorrect, sir!
It is on mine. Do you have iCloud message sync on?
I love this update. I will tell them to never change it back.
I 100% agree thank you
Me too!!!
Deleting new messages on Apple Watch deletes all the message on iPhone
