How to edit texts in Google Messages

When you know how to edit texts in Google Messages, you can quickly go back and make the necessary changes. You also save time since you don't have to rewrite the message for it to make sense. Android users can now edit their messages when using RCS messages in Google Messages, and the good news is that the steps to do it are beginner-friendly. 

The new feature is part of the June Android feature drop, but if you don't see it yet, ensure you update your Android apps to get the latest features. Remember, you only have a maximum of 15 minutes to edit your messages. WhatsApp users also have the same amount of time to edit their messages. But if you proofread your messages shortly after sending them, that should be more than enough time.
