WhatsApp announced a new feature that can restore deleted messages or chats. This feature is suitable for users who may accidentally delete messages when communicating in chat.
WhatsApp’s latest feature announcement is different compared to previous features. The reason is, this Meta’s application does not write about it on the official blog. However, it was announced directly by the Head of WhatsApp, Will Chatcart on his personal Twitter account on Tuesday (20/12/2022).
Cathcart explained that this feature is here to complement the features Delete for Me. A feature that can be used by users to delete messages in their chat column, but the message recipients can still see the message.
The reason is that the WhatsApp boss thinks that many users accidentally press the feature Delete For Men even though planning to suppress features Delete for Everyone or the feature to remove everyone.
