Google Messages is starting to roll out 'Delete for everyone'

a year ago

Google Messages for Android is introducing the ability to delete chat messages for everyone in group RCS conversations.
Users will have two options: 'Delete for everyone' and 'Delete for me'.
The 'Delete for everyone' feature allows users to remove messages sent to others, though older app versions may still display them.
This feature is part of Universal Profile 2.7, which supports editing, recalling, and deleting messages for both sender and recipient.
Currently, the feature is only appearing in larger group chats (e.g., 12 people) and not in smaller or 1-to-1 conversations.
Google is also working on other group chat features like invite links, QR codes, and @-mentions.
The 'Delete for everyone' feature is not yet widely available on checked devices.
