WhatsApp launches message editing feature for platform testers on the internet. As part of this beta, some Internet users will have the opportunity to try out a feature that, if it seems obvious and necessary, is slowly making its way into the world’s most popular messaging app: replacing requested messages. booing for years. Meta engineers have yet to deliver it on iOS and Android, nor on the Web.
Therefore, some WhatsApp testers on the web have the option to change the content of their sent messages only for a limited time. If you made a bad typo or regret what you said, you will have only 15 minutes to change your text. This limitation is intentional, because according to the creators of the app “it is to preserve the authenticity of the conversation so that users cannot completely change their messages after a long period of time, because this feature should only be used to fix bugs spellings or carelessness”.
WhatsApp beta version 2.2319.9 allows editing of sent messages
In the end, editing sent messages will obviously not remain WhatsApp’s prerogative on the web. Android and iOS users of the application will soon benefit from the beta version, which offers the same possibility.
HE usage should be more intuitiveand the procedure will be more or less the same as followed by competing apps:
- open the chat where you want to change a message
- click the down arrow in the message bubble
- Click “Edit message”, write new message in popup window
“Changed” (Edited) appears in the balloon of the corresponding message, so all your interlocutors will know that you have changed the text content of speech
