WhatsApp releases editing update for iPhone users after years of fans asking for it

iPhone users who use WhatsApp to stay in touch with friends and family should make sure they update the app to make the most of its new editing features.

The Meta-owned Instant Messaging (IM) service has recently began rolling out an update which allows users to edit messages after sending, but you can only do it should you have version 23.12.76 installed on your device.

Once upgraded, you'll have 15 minutes to make changes to messages, giving users the option to eradicate any awkward typos and embarrassing mis-sends. You can also add emojis, expand your conversations, or completely change what was initially sent, should you have a sudden change of heart.
