How to edit a message in Messenger
Finally it is possible edit messages on Facebook Messenger a function that little by little has been extended to most messaging applications such as Telegram or WhatsApp.
Messenger gives us 15 minutes to edit a message, although it is important to know that we can edit the same message a maximum of five times. After 15 minutes, your only option will be to unsend the message (which deletes it from the chat, changing its content to “The message has been unsent”). Canceling messages has no time limit in Messenger, so you can do it at any time, even if months have passed.

This takes the original content of the message to the form, where you can modify to fix any errors, additions or omissions what you want to do. When you’re done, press ✔️ to confirm your edit. If you change your mind and don’t want to edit the message, you can press the X button.
Edited messages appear with the text Edited above them, although edit history not shown. These are all the steps necessary to edit a message on Facebook Messenger:
- Long-tap the message you want to edit until the bottom menu opens.
- Press … Further.
- Press Edit. If the menu does not appear, it may have been more than 15 minutes since youIn Voonze |
