Delete old messages on Gizmo Watch 2

My daughter has a Gizmo Watch 2. Our neighbor's daughter has a Gizmo Watch 2. The two girls exchange text and voice messages all the time. My daughter received a messages tonight that her memory was full and she could not receive any new messages. 
For the life of me I can figure out how to delete old texts and voice messages off of her watch to free up memory space, other than doing a complete factory reset on her watch.

How do I use the watch or the hub app to deleted the old messages she has received from other Gizmo watch kids in the neighborhood?

* Note- The delete all function on the Gizmo Hub app is NOT the answer. It ONLY deletes messages between the watch and the phone app.

Hello, dougd82. Does her Gizmo watch have the most recent software update installed? Additionally, when was the Gizmo watch purchased?

As far as I know the software is up to date. The watch was purchased 1 to 2 years ago I believe? It's the #2 version.

As I've already pointed out deleting messages via the app only deletes messages between the app and the gizmo watch.

It does not deleted messages on the gizmo between it and another gizmo user.

Hello, dougd82. We want to help you get support with the Gizmo watch issue. We have reviewed all the information we have about this issue, and the only instructions we have found are to delete the messages from the Gizmo Hub. And as you have mentioned before, this only deletes the messages between the parent and the Gizmo watch not from another Gizmo. There are some steps that we could help. For example deleting the contact for the other Gizmo she sends messages to, and then re-adding that contact. Please try this method, and than let us know if this helped.
