Can You Unsend An iMessage In iOS 15?

screenrant.com:

At its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 6, Apple announced a slew of new iMessage features, but are they available for iOS 15 and older? The new iMessage features will enable users to edit, unsend and mark messages as unread after they've been sent. The features will be housed within the interaction menu that can be accessed by long-pressing on an iMessage. Currently, the menu allows users to copy or translate the message, but the new feature drop will add three more buttons for 'Edit,' 'Undo Send' and 'Mark as Unread.'

Apple launched its proprietary instant messaging service, iMessage, in 2011. It's available on macOS, iOS, iPadOS and watchOS. Unlike WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram and other popular messaging services, it is not available on Android and other non-Apple platforms. There areworkarounds to use iMessage on Android, Windows and Linux, but the real app remains missing in action. Despite its unavailability on non-Apple platforms, iMessage remains incredibly popular among iPhone users. The new features will likely increase its popularity among the iMessage faithful.
