WhatsApp is preparing a new feature of its groups, imported directly from other services such as Telegram, and it would be that of allow admins of group conversations to delete messages at willwhich is especially useful in large and relatively public groups where personal moderation can leave something to be desired.
This feature will appear in version 22.18.0.70 Beta in the iOS appwhile, in the case of Android, it is believed that version 2.22.17.12 should already have support for this feature, something that is not entirely clear due to the fact that only a few Beta users are getting access to this functionality.
Obviously, being a feature that is only available in the Beta version of the application, it cannot be found in the stable version, so, in general,the number of users who currently have access to this feature is very limited. Among its details, which we can see in WABetaInfowe know that group members will be able to see which admin deleted the message.
In any case, we should see how the figure of administrator begins to gain more weight in WhatsApp, because until now, all he could do was invite and kick group members and little elsemuch less serious –in a certain way- than modifying the content of the chat at will.
