The trick to delete messages on WhatsApp even if they have already been read

The option to delete messages in WhatsApp is one of the most used updates to the messaging application in recent times. This is an effective solution for when, due to an oversight or any other circumstance, we send a message by mistake. However, this option has a limitation: when the message has already been read, it cannot be deleted. Now this has changed thanks to this trick.

Until now, messages can be deleted in two ways: for all users in the conversation or for yourself. The problem is that the first option is only applicable when the message in question has not yet been read.

Now they have revealed a trick that can be used to delete that message even if it has been read. You just have to follow the following steps:

Put the phone in airplane mode Access the clock in settings and set a time before reading the message Open WhatsApp Access the conversation in question Delete the message

The cessation of service therefore affects mobile phones that are a few years old (most were marketed in 2012 or 2013), but they still remain in the pockets of a good number of users.

The phones that will not be affected will, therefore, be those with Android on version 4.1 or later, as well as those of other operating systems.
