The option to delete sent messages appeared in WhatsApp in mid-2017 and has since become a staple feature for users of the messaging app. Over the months, the platform has improved with features like temporary messages. And now the app seems to be gearing up to get another option for group leaders.
Through WhatsApp Beta 2.22.1.1, WABetaInfo has discovered a new functionality in development and has managed to enable it to give us the first screenshots of a function that surely, it will be well seen by group administrators: they will be able to delete any message.
Administrators in groups will have more power in WhatsApp
Everything indicates that in early 2022, the popular messaging platform will add this new way of moderating groups, allowing administrators to delete any messages that have been sent to group chat.
With this future innovation, administrators will be able to maintain more order in their groups by being able to discard unwanted messages, or messages that fall outside the group’s rules or topics.
As you can see in the screenshot, for messages deleted by the administrator, the text “This message has been deleted by the administrator” will appear without indicating who deleted it. Based on WABetaInfo testing, Administrators will also be able to delete messages from other administrators.
This feature was seen in the latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android released so far. Therefore, you will not have to wait too long to access it in its stable version.
But that is not all, WhatsApp seems to want to extend the time we have to delete a message. At first it seemed like the 4,096 second delay would be removed, but in the WhatsApp Desktop source code it appears to be it will extend to seven days and eight minutes.
