Edit sent messages on WhatsApp?

WhatsApp is one of the most popular instant messaging platforms in the world, used by more than 2 billion users. It also happens to be one of the most frequently updated apps of all time.

And, according to a recent report by WABetaInfo, the platform is testing a new feature that will let users edit messages up to 15 minutes after they are sent, similar to how the edit button works on Apple’s iMessage app. Follow SpotLife Asia for the latest news and updates.

The edit feature is handy if you want to fix any spelling or grammatical mistakes or add or remove some information. The feature is still under development but was recently spotted on WhatsApp beta for iOS 23.4.0.72, released for those enrolled in the TestFlight program.

Currently, if you are running an older version of WhatsApp, the edited message will not be visible but users will get a warning telling them their version of WhatsApp is incompatible with the new feature.

The developers are also reportedly working on another feature that lets them edit media captions. Since the edit message feature is currently under development, there is no news if and when it will be available to all users.
