Facebook has followed through on giving all users the option to unsend messages after it was discovered that CEO Mark Zuckerberg had access to the exclusive option last year. Here’s how the new feature with a limited time window works…
We reported last fall on the news that Facebook was working on the unsend message feature with a 10-minute window. Here’s how the company described it:
It was back in April of last year that news first broke that Zuckerberg was deleting private messages after sending them.
As reported by TechCrunch, Facebook is now rolling out the unsend feature called “Remove for everyone” to all users starting today for its Messenger platform.
Within the ten-minute window, users will see a few options when tapping on a message they’ve sent.
However, those you’ve sent the messages to will still see an alert that a message was removed.
What do you think? Is this something you’ll find useful or is it an unnecessary complication? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
