WhatsApp will withdraw messages sent from iPhone

WhatsApp will soon implement a new function for iPhone users, allowing the withdrawal of messages already sent to other people. Let's say you used WhatsApp to send an inappropriate message to someone, or that you don't want that person to see a message that is no longer relevant, but now the application won't allow you to cancel the action.

This will change soon, because WhatsApp wants to implement a new function that will allow you to withdraw messages already sent in conversations. In the image below you can see what a message withdrawn by the user through the WhatsApp application looks like, the unsent indicator being displayed for messages that have been withdrawn by the person who sent them.

The function itself is an innovative one for a messaging platform, because it could avoid sending unwanted messages to various people who use WhatsApp. It is not yet known in what form the function will be available in WhatsApp, but probably a dedicated button will be available in the interface displayed after selecting the messages already sent by us.

According to those who tested the new WhatsApp function, it will only work for 5 minutes after sending a message, so you won't have much time to withdraw it. At the moment, the new WhatsApp function is being tested for both iPhone and Android users, but for now it is not known when it could be officially launched.

What do you think about this new WhatsApp function?

  1. acum am incercat si da,este de ceva timp…poti sterge mesajul. Sau oare se sterge doar de la mine din conversatie si el ramane trimis ?!

  2. Da. E ok dar trebuie sa vad in setari undeva cum pot face ctrl center sa il glisez din partea inferioara sau ceva gen reachability . Unii au zis ca trebuie sa mearga fara root sau alte artificii dar mom nu am reusit. E ok dar partea superioara f greu de accesat folosind telef cu o mana fiind obisnuit cu ip7 .

  3. Pe watsapp merg sterse mesajele, dar ele raman trimise din pacate. Mesajul il stergi din conversatie dar destinatarul tot il primeste deci degeaba. E binevenita functia

  4. @Srb Srb. Ok. Iphone-ul il ti in paralel ? Sau folosesti doar Samsungul ? Daca este sa trec este prima data cand as folosii android si mi-e frica :))) Ca experienta de utilizare comparativ cu iOS cum este ? Te-ai obijnuit cu meniul sa zic asa…

  5. Pt lucruri simple si basic ce faci sau ce fac majoritatea oamenilor e mai ok ios. Dar e ok si s8 doar prin acel screen to body ratio. Daca iphone8 va avea 75% maxim 80% clar s8 nu e pt mine. Sunt prea objsnuit sa interactio ez prin 3d touch si cu ctrl centre fiind in part inferioara + reachability deci iphone 7 il folosesc 80% cu o singura mana. S8 invers, plus ca am revenit prin a imi debloca telefonul cu parola asa cum faceam la iphone 4s ip5

  6. cu Nova Launcher si faci swipe down unde vrei in display nu mai trebuie sa-l “agati” de sus, pe foldere sau shortcuts poti stabili swipe actions, de ex daca apesi “mesaje” deschide mesageria daca faci swipe up deschide “direct message to…” la “Maps” de exemplu prin apasare deschide app prin swipe action deschide in “driving Mode” setarile de swipe le stabilesti tu din desktop tinand apasat pe shortcut si dai “edit > choose action”, poti redenumii, schimba imagine(tema) sau selecta si o activitate a unei aplicatii de ex: cu es file explorer, apesi icon deschide aplicatia faci swipe up face doar un start in backgroud la server FTP sau pornesti ad-hoc…
    tot in desktop mai ai posibilitatea de gesturi(swipe, double tap,swipe 2 fingers, pinch sau rotate) ex: eu cand fac swipe cu 2 degete l-am setat sa deschida “search apps”, daca fac un simplu swipe up oriunde pe descktop deschide “Facebook”…etc.
    pentru icons-teme instalezi pachetul dorit!Dupa instalare trebuie sa aloci ca app default acest launcher ori din setarile aplictiei ori din setarile dispozitivului: /seteri/aplicatii/aplicatii default/home screen…
    varianta cu plata ofera si “dynamic badges” pentru notificari, iti afiseaza poza celui ce trimite mesaj, apel, mail… in loc de nr notificarilor necitite!
    enjoi!
