It was one of the last couriers not to offer this option. Shortly, WhatsApp will allow its users to be able to modify a message already sent. Until now, in case of errors, it was necessary either to delete it or to send a new one in order to rectify the previous content. To do this, the messenger belonging to Facebook specifies that it will be necessary to long press on the message in question to see a feature appear “edit“. And this, in the fifteen minutes which will follow the sending. Once the corrections have been made, the recipients will know, by an indication, that a message has been changed, “without the history of modifications being displayed”, indicates the company in a communicated.
“Whether it’s correcting a misspelling or putting a message into context, we’re happy to give you more control over your chats.“, details WhatsApp. The messaging then takes over an option put in place by Apple for its Imessage messaging application. And via Twitter, where subscribers can edit their posts up to 30 minutes after they go live. One question remains: when will this new feature be available? WhatsApp specifies that this “is being rolled out worldwide and (what) will be available to everyone in the coming weeks.”
