WhatsApp revolutionizes messaging experience with real-time message editing feature

WhatsApp, owned by Meta, is finally introducing a highly anticipated feature that allows users to edit their messages even after they’ve been sent, as reported by WaBetaInfo.

The feature, known as ‘edit messages’ is currently available to some beta testers and will be gradually rolled out to more users in the coming days.

Mark Zuckerberg announced the feature through Meta’s official channel on Instagram. It provides users with the ability to quickly fix any typos or make changes to their messages, even after sending them.

The feature is accessible through the Microsoft Store and can be found in the message menu within 15 minutes of sending a message. To check if you have access to this feature, simply try editing a sent message.

However, it’s important to note that messages sent from a different device cannot be edited. The WhatsApp watcher stated, “This may be a wider rollout, so some users on certain previous updates may also gain access to the same feature starting today.”

We often find ourselves making typos or sharing incorrect information when conversing with someone. Thankfully, this much-needed and impressive feature now allows us to rectify those mistakes.

According to WaBetaInfo, WhatsApp has plans to further enhance the message editing feature in order to provide users with an even better experience while using the application.
