Google Messages is rolling out a new feature allowing users to edit RCS messages within 15 minutes of sending. Users can long-press the message to access an edit option, and the original message will be viewable through the overflow menu. This feature is available to all users in a conversation if they have it enabled. Additionally, new Emoji Kitchen sticker combinations are being introduced.
The Google Messages APK suggests that users may soon be able to edit messages after they have been sent, providing more flexibility and control over their conversations.
Google Messages, Android's default messaging app, is reportedly testing a new feature that would allow users to edit sent messages, similar to Apple's iMessage and Meta's WhatsApp. Code snippets found in the latest beta version of Google Messages suggest that the feature is in development, although it is unclear when it will be officially released. As messaging apps become increasingly important, the ability to edit sent messages is becoming a standard feature. The adoption of RCS (Rich Communication Services) by Apple next year is expected to further popularize the use of modern messaging features and bridge the gap between Android and iPhone users.
WhatsApp will now allow users to edit messages for up to 15 minutes after being sent, replicating a feature offered by other messaging apps such as Telegram and Signal. The new feature is expected to roll out to WhatsApp's approximately 2 billion users within the coming weeks. Altered messages will show up as "edited," notifying recipients that a change has been made. Meta-owned WhatsApp has been noted for its efforts to replicate competitor apps over recent years.
WhatsApp has introduced a message editing feature that allows users to modify a message within 15 minutes of sending it. The edited messages will have an “edited” tag next to the time stamp to mark the change, but the app won’t maintain any correction history. The feature is already rolling out to users and will be available to everyone in a few weeks.
WhatsApp has released a new beta version for Android, which includes the ability to edit sent messages for select users. Users can tap on a sent message and select the "Edit" option from the top menu to make changes, but edited messages will still show a notification that they have been edited, and there will be a limit on how much time users have to edit their messages after they have been sent. The feature is currently rolling out to a limited number of users, with no word on when it will become widely available.
