Wish you could re­word that snarky text mes­sage you just sent?

What­sApp is al­low­ing users to do just that, for up to 15 min­utes af­ter they send a mes­sage. The pop­u­lar chat app an­nounced in a blog post Mon­day that users can cor­rect mis­spellings, add more de­tails or oth­er­wise change what they have sent to friends, fam­i­ly and cowork­ers.

The abil­i­ty to ed­it mes­sages has start­ed rolling out to peo­ple world­wide and will be avail­able to all users in com­ing weeks, ac­cord­ing to the com­pa­ny owned by Face­book par­ent Meta.

To fix a text, press and hold the sent mes­sage and pick “ed­it.” Af­ter the changes, it will then dis­play “edit­ed,” but those re­ceiv­ing the mes­sage won’t be able to see the ed­it his­to­ry, What­sApp says.

Ap­ple last year re­vealed the abil­i­ty to ed­it and un­send iMes­sages be­tween iPhones in a sys­tem up­grade. Those on the re­ceiv­ing end see that a mes­sage was un­sent and the ed­it his­to­ry, the com­pa­ny said.
