The text of ‘This message was deleted’ means that one person decided to delete its content for everyone. This is perhaps one of the things that causes the most dislike among WhatsApp users, but it can save you in many cases. Among all the functions that WhatsApp offers us, we offer this space to teach you how you can do it too. If you still do not use this application, do not wait any longer to start .

How can you delete a message in your WhatsApp conversation?
If it is about deleting a message in a WhatsApp conversation, the application provides you with two ways to do it . The first way to do it and perhaps the most frequent is to delete a message for everyone, that is, no one will be able to see it after you delete it, even you.
The second way is to delete a message just for you , so any member of the chat in which you delete the message can continue to view the message after you delete it.
Deleting a message for everyone can be helpful if you have made a mistake in the message you sent or even if you have made the wrong chat. You can delete a message for everyone by following these series of steps:
- Enter the WhatsApp application you use and go to the chat where you want to delete a message.
- Press for a moment the messageyou want to delete, the options will appear.
- At the top a series of icons will appear, select the trash can iconthat refers to deleting something. After that, three options will appear, the option to delete for me, delete for everyone and cancel.
- Finally, select the ‘Delete for everyone’ optionand your message will be deleted successfully.
- You can be sure that your message has been deleted for everyone when the message changes to ‘This message has been deleted’ or ‘You have deleted this message’, it may vary depending on the updates you have.
You will be able to delete a message for yourself, following the steps in the same way. You just have to make a variation in step four and select the option ‘Delete for me’ . At this point a notification will not appear, you will only be able to appreciate that the message will no longer be present within your chat. To clarify the obvious, the other person or people to whom you sent the message will still be able to see it.
It should be noted that, if you have sent the message in the last hour, you can delete it for everyone, otherwise, you will not be able to do it. Keep in mind that deleting a message for everyone does not ensure that someone did not see it before you decided to delete it.
It is even possible that, if you have sent a file to a WhatsApp user who has iOS, they remain saved thanks to its storage cloud . For the elimination of a message for everyone to be totally efficient, both users, sender and recipient, must have the same version of the application.
Is there a way to see the messages that your friend has deleted?
The answer is yes, there is a way to see the messages that your friend has deleted on WhatsApp for everyone. Technically it is the closest thing to seeing the deleted messages, and that is that there are several applications in the store of your smartphone that manage to access your old notifications to show you these messages before they were deleted.
One of these applications and the most popular today is WAMR , you can find it in the Google store, since it is only available for Android devices. The functions of this application include the recovery of old WhatsApp notifications (so you can see the messages), multimedia content and even the deleted statuses of your contacts, it does not matter that the latter have not loaded .
To access the application, simply install it on your device and link your WhatsApp. WAMR not only allows you to recover notifications from a single application, but it also has an extensive catalog so that you can recover the message views of almost all your applications.
Will citing the messages reveal them?
Citing WhatsApp messages will not reveal their content, since after being deleted you cannot access any of these options . This can be a useful option, but you must do it before the messages are deleted for it to work. That is, if you have quoted a message and it was later deleted, this message will remain in the appointment and can be read.
