Default Google’s working on a Trash folder for Messages
TL;DR
  • Code in the latest Google Messages beta hints that the app may be getting a trash folder.
  • The folder could work similarly to Gmail’s, where trashed messages are held for 30 days before they’re automatically deleted.
  • We couldn’t activate any UI for this new feature; it may be in the early stages of development.
Google Messages might be getting a Trash folder for deleted messages. We’ve spotted code in the latest Messages beta build that makes multiple new references to “trashed conversations,” hinting that deleting messages could work differently in an upcoming update.
