WhatsApp Users Rejoice: Big Message Delete Time Boost Incoming
Ever sent a WhatsApp message and instantly regretted it? Your prayers are about to be answered. WhatsApp is set to roll out a major update that dramatically extends the time you have to delete those embarrassing messages.
Delete for Everyone Gets a Mega Makeover
The popular chat app first launched the “Delete for Everyone” feature back in October 2017. But until now, you only had a tiny seven-minute window to wipe messages from both sides of the chat.
Android Beta Users Already Getting Nearly 70 Minutes to Delete
Android users testing the beta version 2.18.69 are already seeing the change. Instead of 420 seconds (7 minutes), they now get a whopping 4,096 seconds — that’s over 68 minutes — to delete messages. That’s almost 10 times longer than before!
This update means you’ll have way more time to rethink, regret, and retract those knee-jerk texts before everyone sees them. It’s a game-changer for quick fingers and chat slip-ups alike.
