WhatsApp lets you undo ‘Delete for Me’ in case you hit that button too quickly
Image Credits: WhatsAppWhatsApp has introduced a feature to undo the “Delete for Me” action to save you from being potentially embarrassed over accidentally deleting a message only for you that you wanted to pull for everyone on the app.
The new feature, called “accidental delete,” brings a five-second window to let users reverse the action of deleting messages for their own in an individual or group chat and delete them for everyone.
Users sometimes land in a situation when they accidentally tap the “Delete for Me” button instead of “Delete for Everyone” to delete a wrongly sent message. The new feature aims to help users overcome those situations by getting the small window to reverse their original action.
WhatsApp said its new offering would be available to all users on Android and iPhone. It was beta tested with some Android and iOS users in August, per a report by WhatsApp features tracker WABetaInfo.
