Hi Janet, 



Good day to you. The nul  issue is a current bug that Apple are
aware of. 



The work around is to close and reopen the app after having deleted
the message. 



I do agree it's highly annoying and a productivity drain. (
Specially if one gets a multitude of  in coming conversations. 



Quite frankly I'm baffled how they didn't address this bug earlier
during the beta period. 



Sincerely, 



Sadam Mohammed Ahmed

No different as
  before, if you continue to swipe right you should find
  it. You could also ask SIRI to read new text messages
  to you.

More than likely, not. Games like that and Clash of Clans, are 
not accessible.

Okay, I read the article but not sure I understand why they would

allow people to turn the feature off, or disconnect accessories, but

leave the wifi or Bluetooth still running. Can anyone give an example

of this? If I turn wifi off from the Control Center, then would that

mean that my phone would not try to connect to a network where I am,

and would remain unconnected until I got to a place with a network

I've used before?
