💬 WhatsApp: ‘Beast of Luck’ or ‘Best of Luck?’ – Time to Edit! But Tik Tok, You’ve Only Got 15 Minutes! 🕒

TL;DR; WhatsApp’s rolling out a new feature that’s giving you the power to rewrite history…well, sorta. You’ve got a generous 15-minute window to edit that message you just sent, but after that? That embarrassing typo is going to haunt you forever, friend.

Here’s the full scoop, folks! WhatsApp, the digital world’s chattiest cousin, has announced an update that’s got everyone’s fingers a-twitter. Picture this: you’ve just sent a message. Then you spot the dreaded typo – “beast of luck” instead of “best of luck”. Major facepalm moment, right? 🤦‍♀️ Well, fret not, typo masters! The newest feature from WhatsApp allows you to edit your sent messages. But here’s the kicker: you’ve only got 15 minutes to make that change.

Now, who among us hasn’t wished for a time machine to go back and fix that awkward text? WhatsApp’s update might not be a full-fledged DeLorean, but it’s pretty close! And here’s a nugget for ya: when you’ve done a ninja edit, your message will sport a shiny “edited” label. But don’t worry, no one will see your original embarrassing mistake, the edit history isn’t shown! Phew! 🙌

The rules of the game are simple. Long press on your pesky mistake of a message and select “edit” from the pop-up menu. Do it within the magic 15-minute window and voila! You’ve just become the Houdini of messages.

Before this, your only option to escape the shame of an embarrassing message was to delete it and send a new one. Of course, that left behind a glaring “this message was deleted” notice. You might as well have left a neon sign flashing, “I MESSED UP!” 😅

WhatsApp is joining the ranks of apps like Telegram and Signal which already offer this life-saving feature. Even Twitter offers an editing feature to its Twitter Blue service subscribers. But here’s a question for you, WhatsApp: Twitter gives a solid 30-minute edit window, so why are we getting only half that time? 🤔

Interesting to note, WhatsApp’s big bro, Facebook, has been letting users edit posts and comments for about a decade now. And little sis Instagram allows users to edit posts too, but holds the line at editing comments. What’s up with that, Insta?

But let’s not forget the elephant in the room. Amidst
