Beth, Your right the old method does sound easier.
The only other option is to press on one of the conversations to bring up the “more” choices and this time when you click on those you want to save hit the forward arrow and those will be text to yourself…then delete the entire message..however the forwarded text are all one continuous message, not separated into the various persons in the conversation…very generic.
