WhatsApp will introduce an undo button for deleted messages

WhatsApp already has a feature that allows you to delete tex sent by mistake. So, if a message is sent to the wrong chat, you can easily "delete for all" and that makes things easier. And now, it's planning to add a new feature, which will let you know if you accidentally delete a message and it wasn't meant to be. Here are the details.

WABetaInfo recently revealed that WhatsApp is working on an undo option for your deleted messages. This means that if you select the "Delete for me" option and then want to change it, you will have a few seconds to undo this action.

A shared screenshot suggests that if a message is deleted, there will be an undo option at the bottom of the screen, which can be tapped to restore the message. It is similar to the undo option for various actions in Gmail. With this, you can either keep the message or delete the message for everyone in a group chat or an individual one See the screenshot below here.

However, we don't know if this functionality will be for all deleted messages or will only allow you to recover deleted messages. It makes more sense to enable this for all deleted messages as there is a chance that someone might delete a message by mistake and retyping it can be a hassle.

That being said, since this feature is still under development, there is no word on when it will be available for beta and general users. So, it may take some time before it rolls out to users.

Also, WhatsApp is testing another feature that will let you edit a sent message. This will come in handy again if you send a wrong message and don't want to delete it and type it again. It is also under development and it remains to be seen when it will reach users.

For its recent launch, the Meta-owned messaging platform recently got message responses, community sections, the ability to add up to 32 people to voice calls, and a "2GB limit" for media. As it is testing a lot of features, we expect them to become official by this year.
