Old texts retrieving

I want to see my texts from several months ago. Scrolling will give me carpal tunnel syndrome!

Is there any way to have it?

I am using iPhone 8. Thanks

I can by date...but search in the phone? Please tell...

I can do by a word I remember...

Cool! Never even seen the Search in texting! However can’t find unique word! Urghhh

Can I do by date? Somehow?

Ok wizards! You are awesome!

Now when my settings said to save texts forever - does it have some limit anyways? I can see since Jan 21 but I need 2018. Thanks! 👍
