We ’ve all sent a text message and regretted instantly.It may be a text with a spelling error or a message with a wrong word in it or a unforeseen realization that you just transferred your message to the wrong person it can be at the least disturbing
While messaging apps like Signal, WhatsApp, and Viber all have some version of “ delete for everyone, ” until now, there was nothing you could do about it on iMessage
In iOS 16, Apple introduces a feature to its iMessage chat app that allows you to edit or unsend a message — as long as you do it within 15 minutes of when you sent it and the recipient is also on iOS 16, iPadOS 16, or macOS Ventura.
In addition, it fails inelegantly if the other person is on an earlier version( so do n’t rely on this feature during the public beta). And there may be some other issues that you want to be apprehensive of when using this feature.
Still, it can be very handy. Here’s how to use it in iOS 16 beta
TO CHANGE THE MESSAGE
Long- press on the message.
On the drop- down menu, valve Edit.
Edit your message and tap the checkmark to the right of the message to send the correction.( Or tap the “ x ” to the left wing of the message if you ’ve changed your mind about changing the text).
TO DELETE THE MESSAGE
Long- press on the message.
On the drop- down menu, tap Undo Send.
The message will immediately vanish( in a rather pretty “ poof! ”). However, also the Undo Send and Edit options will no longer be on the menu, If you long- press on your message after 15 minutes have passed.
