WhatsApp receives one of its most requested changes: forget about deleting messages due to typos

The feature will only be available within a certain window of time after sending messages

WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging and communication apps worldwide. If you use it every day and spend time deleting messages due to typos, you will be happy to know that those days are over.

A few days ago, we reported that WhatsApp was about to receive the option to edit messages. Well, starting today, this feature will begin to be available for all users of the messaging system on iOS or Android.

Therefore, from now on, users will have the opportunity to send any message they send via WhatsApp to fix details or correct any typos. However, they will not have all the time in the world to do so, as there will only be a 15-minute editing window.

WhatsApp expects this feature to reach the hands of all users in "the coming weeks."

How to edit WhatsApp messages?

Now, how can a WhatsApp message be edited? Very easy! You just have to press any message you see and select the edit option from the menu. If you are within the editing window, you can modify the message to make it exactly what you intended to send.

It is important to note that edited messages will have a label indicating that they were modified. Only the person who sent the message will be able to see the edit history, but everyone will know that the message was modified.

It should be mentioned that, with this, WhatsApp is joining a growing list of services that allow you to edit messages. It has been a very popular feature on Discord for some time, while it has been available on iMessage since the launch of iOS 16 for iPhone and iPad. On the other hand, it has been available on Twitter for those who pay for Twitter Blue for months.

And you, what do you think of this news? Are you happy to be able to edit messages on WhatsApp? Let us know in the comments.
