Whatsapp allows users to edit messages within 15 minutes after being sent.

They say messages can be edited for up to 15 minutes after being sent.

The instant-messaging service is part of US technology giant Meta, which also owns Facebook and Instagram.

The feature will be available to WhatsApp's 2 billion users in the coming weeks.

"From correcting a simple misspelling to adding extra context to a message, we're excited to bring you more control over your chats"

"All you need to do is long-press on a sent message and choose 'Edit' from the menu for up to fifteen minutes after," it added.

Edited messages will be tagged as "edited", so recipients know the content has been changed.

However, they will not be shown how the message has been tweaked over time.

The edit function was introduced by the social media platform Facebook almost a decade ago.

Around that time, Facebook revealed that more than half of its users accessed the site on mobile phones, which are more prone to typing errors.

On Facebook, updates that are modified are marked as edited. A history of the edits is also available for users to view.

Last year, Elon Musk's social media platform Twitter said it was giving its paying subscribers the ability to edit their tweets.
(Tweets can be edited a few times in the 30 minutes after posting.)
