I need time stamps PER message (text message and iMessage). How can I get it to display a time stamp for each one, even if they're only spaced seconds apart?

I find that this is extremely annoying that something so simple that has been the norm since the advent of SMS is not a default (or not available?) in such a "smart phone".

Any help much appreciated and thanks so much in advance!

Already there. Swipe right from any message. Only thing missing is the ability to keep them on the screen all the time.

Oh wow! Thank you! I can't believe I didn't notice that! Much appreciated for such a fast response!

Yeah, displaying the time stamps on screen all the time would be ideal, but this helps a lot. I wonder if they will show up if I were to print out a sequence of texts?

Anyway, this helps a lot!

you could try swiping to show them then doing a screen print on the phone and printing that picture.
 
Certainly one if the smaller yet long missing things that was finally added to iOS after all the years.
