WhatsApp has recently rolled out a new feature named as ‘Delete For Everyone’ in which the sender can delete the message from their as well as from the receiver’s chat window. But you can delete the message for everyone only within 7 minutes of sending the message as past 7 minutes you will find only ‘Delete For Me’ option.
The mechanism of this new added feature are as follows:
Available on Android and iOS
The ‘Delete For Everyone’ feature is available for both Android and iOS users’, users need to update their WhatsApp messenger to use this feature.

The sender has a window of seven minutes under which he or she can delete a message. After seven minutes, you will not see the delete for everyone option.
You can delete the message for both sender and receiver
A user will have an option to delete the message for both sender and receiver. When you select the option to delete a message you will see two options – delete for you and delete for everyone. So, you can select any of the option you want.
The receiver will know you have deleted a message
Once the sender deletes the message, the receiver will get to know that a message has been deleted. Their chat window will display a message reading, ‘This message has been deleted’.
You won’t be notified if deleting for everyone was not successful
The company also feels that there will be occasions when the feature will not function and your message is not deleted. In that case the app will not notify the user.
