You can now edit messages on WhatsApp

WhatsApp has recently released a new feature that will let users edit sent messages, with a time limit of fifteen minutes since the message was sent. 

To use this feature, simply long-press the sent message and click the 'Edit' option that pops up.

Any message edited this way will show a marked 'edited' with it, so any recipients will know that the message has been edited.

WhatsApp has also stated that this edit option, like the app's messages, calls and media, are protected by end-to-end encryption.

The company has also stated that the feature will roll out globally in the coming weeks.
