If I delete a Conversation on Messenger Does the Other Person Know:
When you delete a conversation on Messenger, it means that the conversation is removed from your inbox.
This means that the other person involved in the conversation can still see the messages, even after you have deleted the conversation from your end.
You can try by understanding that deleting a conversation only affects your view of it, and it does not erase it from the other person’s Messenger.
If you want to ensure that the other person doesn’t see the conversation anymore, you can politely ask them to delete the conversation as well.
You can explain to them that deleting the conversation on both ends would ensure complete privacy and remove it from both of your views.
What do others see if you Delete a conversation on Messenger:
The direct answer to this question is:
Nothing they will see if you delete a whole conversation on your messenger however if you delete or unsend a single message then the person will see that message is invisible to him only If he checks.
If you delete from both sides then the receiver will know that you have deleted the conversation but if you have only deleted from your side then it is quite challenging to know without having access to your phone.
Other people will never know that you have deleted the conversation. If you want to not let the other person know about your delete process then make sure to delete from one side/your side only.
