By now, all of us, the WhatsApp users have sent messages that we wish, we shouldn’t have. Well, WhatsApp has taken that into consideration as it is coming up with a new update by which you can withdraw the sent messages and delete it before it is opened/viewed.

The WhatsApp feature will be named as ‘delete for everyone’ in the app. WhatsApp is finally testing the Delete for Everyone feature: the server finally works and it successfully recalls the message. Also if the server works, this does not mean that the feature is currently enabled. It will be remotely enabled later, and seen that WhatsApp “enabled” their servers for the Delete for Everyone feature, it may really be enabled soon,” read WABetaInfo’s tweet.
