How to access old text messages on iPhone without scrolling upwards for an hour?
I want to see an old text but I don't want to sit and scroll and then wait for it to load then scroll some more and blah blah blah. Is there any way to quickly have the whole string of texts loaded?
I know with my Android phone, I open my SMS app and click the search bar and enter the text I'm looking for. Example if a really old text was about Zebras, I would type in Zebra and the one or two text snippets with that word in it will pop up, I then select the one I think it was and that thread will then be displayed. And I can then read the entire exchange or go back to the search and find something else.
BUT the text will of course have to be on the phone, if it was long deleted, you will not find it.
I'm sure the iPhone default texting app should have a search feature as well.
Sadly, no. You have to pump them over to a your laptop. Best luck.

- My iPhone 4S' music is scrolling by itself? After I added music onto my iPhone from my laptop, I opened the music app and when I tried to scroll, it was very lagging(?).It started jumping to random letters in the song selecting bar and it chose random songs but it won't actually play them, it just skips right through them all at random. Is there any way I can fix this without restoring my WHOLE iPhone? Question (user): I have turned it off and on a few times in hope that it'd change, but it continues to skip around.
- I can't access my text messages on iphone? Last night all of a sudden I couldn't view my messages. Whenever I try to view them the application just crashes. It's already been a while and I keep trying but it never works. I've turned off my phone multiple times, but I'm not sure what else to do? I tried seeing if I could view them on my computer, and from there delete messages, because maybe that was the issue. But I'm having no such luck. Advice please?
