According to reports from Wabetainfo, WhatsApp has released update 2.22.1.1 which allows group admins to delete a message for everyone in the group. The screenshot shows that when the message is deleted, it displays a message that says the message “has been removed by an administrator”. No matter how many admins there are in a group, they all have the right to delete messages for everyone. The report states that the feature has yet to be rolled out to beta testers.
“The good news is that WhatsApp is finally updating the message deletion process and group admins will be able to delete any message sent in the group. Thanks to this feature, group admins will also have more power to moderate WhatsApp groups in a future update.” It is unclear whether WhatsApp will consider a stable release of the feature or not.
Once implemented, it would be easier for group admins to delete obscene or objectionable posts. It would also help admins to remove posts that go against the interests of the group.
