Not so long ago, WhatsApp added the ability to delete messages for both the sender and the recipient. To do this, you need to click on the message, and then bring up a menu in which you can choose: delete the message only for yourself or for everyone.

The problem is that you can do this for a limited time. After about nine minutes, you can only delete the message on your device. But there is a clever way to bypass the limitation and delete the message even after a long time. The main thing is that the addressee does not read the message - in this case, nothing can be done.

So, if you've sent a message that you'll regret it all your life, but realized it too late, here's a simple process to get your peace of mind back.

  • Disable Wi-Fi and mobile data.
  • Open your smartphone settings and change the date back a day.
  • Go to WhatsApp, long press on the desired message, bring up the menu and select "Delete for all".

Important: in the settings, change the date, not the time, otherwise WhatsApp will change the message sending time and nothing will work.
