WhatsApp changes its delete function.
If you are not sure whether a message was a good idea, you get more time to think about it from the messenger service.
Munich – You quickly type a message and press send.
And that's it: the message was sent to the wrong chat and is not suitable for the reader's eyes.
WhatsApp already has a solution for this.
The delete function can be used to delete messages in individual or group chats.
Users have a little more than an hour to do this.
But what if you wrote something that you regret the next day?
WhatsApp has introduced a new change for this, as the messenger service announced on Twitter.
WhatsApp users have more time to delete messages
Sometimes it's only in retrospect that you realize that sending a message was a bad idea.
If you wait longer than an hour to delete a message, you're out of luck.
So far, WhatsApp users have had about an hour to delete their messages.
WhatsApp has now announced on Twitter that it will change the delete function.
Whether in a one-on-one or group chat.
Users can delete the messages for themselves and for others after two days.
How often do you use WhatsApp?
WhatsApp is always announcing new features
The Meta Group is always announcing new changes for the Messenger app.
WhatsApp can quickly cause interpersonal misunderstandings.
You often wait for a message, but none comes.
And that, although the user is "online".
Most of the time, there is no malicious intent behind “not writing back”, just lack of time and stress.
WhatsApp announced that it would change this.
In the future it should be possible to hide the "online" display.
