Now that we’ve known the important things about Whatsapp revoke feature, let’s see how to make use of
it. Kindly follow me along.
What is the Official name for this Feature?
It is called Delete for Everyone or Delete for me . The Delete for Everyone feature works for any message type in WhatsApp: text messages, images, videos, GIFs, voice messages, contact cards, files, locations, quoted messages and status replies.
Deleting messages for everyone allows you to delete specific messages you have sent to either a group or an individual chat. This is particularly useful if you sent a message to the wrong chat or if the message you sent contains a mistake.
How to Delete Message For Everyone
1–Open WhatsApp and go to the chat containing the message you wish to delete.
2–Tap and hold the message > choose Delete from the option. Optionally, select more messages to delete multiple messages at once.
3–Then tap Delete >> Delete for everyone.
Deleting messages for yourself allows you to delete your copy of messages you’ve sent or received from your phone. This has no effect on your recipients’ chats. Your recipients will still see the messages in their chat screen.
How to Delete Message For Me
