Google Messages now features 'Delete for everyone' functionality, allowing users to unsend messages in peer-to-peer and group chat conversations.
The feature is specifically for chats over RCS, requiring all parties to have RCS enabled and the latest version of Google Messages for it to work effectively.
The update aims to enhance user experience by reducing the possibility of awkward or mistakenly sent texts, promoting Google Messages as a substitute for Apple Messages.
With the prominence of RCS, Google Messages is positioned to work seamlessly not only within its platform but also potentially with Apple Messages, as Apple has also integrated RCS into its Messages app.
