The instant messaging application
WhatsApp will
allow group chat administrators to delete the messages they deem appropriate regardless of who sent them on Android devices.
This has been announced by WABetainfo, which has indicated that the application is launching
a new update through the Google Play beta program
, which will give this control capacity to group chat administrators.
Thanks to this new function, which belongs to the
beta update
of WhatsApp for
Android 2.22.1.7
, administrators will be able to moderate and control the content that is shared in these groups, as well as decide what they want to keep in them.
Every time they delete a message, all members of that group will receive a notice within the chat itself and it
will appear in the place where the deleted message was before
.
This will indicate which administrator (in the case that there are several administrators in the group) has been in charge of deleting it.
The administrators of the
groups
will have the power to delete any message from these chats without the need for the rest of the participants to give their consent to proceed with the deletion.
At the moment, the implementation date of this option is unknown, since this portal does not mention when this update will arrive on
Android devices
.
It should be noted that it is not the first time that this instant messaging application has chosen to develop
similar message deletion functions
.
In 2017, it introduced the
possibility of permanently deleting messages already sent
and recently announced new options within temporary messages.
Once activated, these disappear after seven days, 24 hours or 90 days.
