WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps with billions of users worldwide. Part of its appeal is its user-friendly interface and constant updates to enhance user experience. One common concern many WhatsApp users have is how to delete already read messages. Whether you regret sending the message or simply want to maintain privacy, WhatsApp offers a feature that allows users to delete sent messages.

Deleting messages on WhatsApp can be done in three easy steps. Here is how you can delete already read messages on WhatsApp:

Step 1: Open WhatsApp and select the conversation where the message you want to delete is located. It can be a one-on-one conversation or a group chat.

Step 2: Locate the message you want to delete. Tap and hold on the message until a menu appears. On WhatsApp, you can delete individual messages or multiple messages at once. If you want to delete multiple messages, tap on them one by one, and a checkmark will appear on each selected message. Alternatively, you can tap and hold on one message, then tap on other messages to select them simultaneously.

Step 3: Once you have selected the message(s) you want to delete, many options will appear at the top of the screen. Look for the trash bin icon, usually located on the right-hand side of the screen. Tap on the trash bin icon, and a confirmation prompt will appear, asking if you want to delete the selected message(s). Confirm your selection by tapping on “Delete” or “Delete for Everyone.”

It’s important to note that there are certain limitations to deleting messages on WhatsApp. First, you can only delete messages within a specific time frame. Currently, WhatsApp allows you to delete messages within 7 minutes and 29 seconds after they have been sent. After this time has passed, the option to delete messages for everyone is no longer available. However, you can still delete messages locally on your device, but it will only remove them from your view and not for other recipients.

Second, while you can delete messages you have sent, it does not guarantee that the recipient(s) won’t be able to see them. If the recipient(s) have already read your message, there is no way to ensure complete deletion from their devices. WhatsApp provides the “Delete for Everyone” option to remove messages from the chat screen, but it cannot guarantee the complete erasure of the message from the recipient’s device.

In conclusion, deleting already read messages on WhatsApp is a reasonably straightforward process. By following the simple steps mentioned above, you can delete individual or multiple messages to gain more control over your chats. However, remember that the delete feature has limitations in terms of time frame and device-specific deletions. So, be cautious and double-check your messages before sending them to avoid any regrets down the line.
