Messaging app WhatsApp has updated its recentlyintroduced 'delete for everyone' feature. With the latest changes, WhatsApp has updated the Recipient Limit. The new move means that now users will try to delete a message for everyone and the recipient doesn't get the revoke request within 13 hours 8 minute and 16 seconds, then the message will not be revoked.
This can happen when the recipient's phone is switched off. The latest update is being seen as a protection against modded users (those who use modified version of the app) who used to revoke messages sent months, weeks or years ago.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp may soon introduce new features for users. The company is working on features such as a dark mode and a new ‘Swipe to Reply’ feature as well.
‘Swipe to Reply' feature
WhatsApp is currently working on a ‘Swipe to Reply’ feature for Android users. At the moment, this feature is already available on iOS. With this feature, one needs to simply swipe right the message they want to reply and the message will load in the reply context. WhatsApp has recently submitted a new update through the Google Play Beta Programme, which brings the beta version up to 2.18.282 respectively.
Dark Mode
The long-awaited Dark Mode may finally arrive soon to WhatsApp and will be available to Android as well as iOS users. This feature will reduce the stress on the eyes while using the app in the dark or, at night. At the moment, there is no timeline provided as to when exactly, this feature will arrive on the app. WABetaInfo revealed on Twitter, “I’m happy to exclusively give the good news: WhatsApp is finally working on a Dark Mode! It’s a dream. There are many important secret references in recent updates! Be patient to see it out, hoping it will be FULL OLED friendly for Android phones, iPhone X and newer
