Google Messages is finally Testing the “Delete for Everyone” buttonAndroid users give a 15 -minute window to disable the RCS text that should not have left the phone first. Initial reports come from the latest beta version, where there are now two options in a long press on a message: “Delete for everyone” or “Delete for me.” When the first choice is used, the chat changes the text with a small message deleted with a deleted label that each partner can see. Now, this feature only appears in large group conversations. One tester was successful in thread with twelve people, while the option remained hidden in small groups and one chat. This feature was The first March was exposed, so it was a pleasure to see that it eventually results, even if it is in the son.
It should be noted that the memory depends on the RCS Universal Profile 2.7, so every person in the chat requires the latest construction of Google messages, or the deletion application fails quietly. In addition, it seems that Google is currently switched to its servers for a small piece of beta users to ensure that the system is maintained before the door opens a wider.

This tight rollout is not surprising. Competitive apps have offered this safety net for years, and each draws its own line in the sand. WhatsApp lets you pull a message back for two days. The iMessage provides you to edit two minutes and fifteen minutes to ban. Telegram goes further and allows users to erase texts at any time at any time. Looking up against this lineup, Google’s 15 -minute limit is modest, but still the biggest difference in its flagship chat app. Instead of time, it is important, considering that Apple plans to go to the same RCS profile that supports these additional features later this year. At the same time, Google has been busy polishing the quality of life tools within the messages, which includes the effects of the reaction, AI counter -tips, and a long postponement button that took four months to stabilize the son last year. If the company follows the same speed, delete for each one can mostly reach the phone by the end of 2025.
I am sure that this is an important step when you keep Apple’s rollout as well as time. If Google extends support before a stable release, Android owners will find mental comfort that WhatsApp and iPhone users already enjoy keeping their conversation clean.
