Apple rolling out edit feature for iMessages in new iOS update

You can now edit iMessages if you’ve sent that cringy late night text.

If you have an iPhone and have upgraded to iOS 16, you can now edit and even unsend messages.

Simply tap and hold on the message you’ve sent then choose “edit” or “undo send.”

Users can edit any message up to five times, and have 15 minutes to edit the text after sending it.

But, the person will be able to see a history of your changes.
