Delete and forward messages and images with new chat features
Now you can edit text and images in your own chats with the Edit Messages feature that includes options to delete and forward messages as well as save notes.

2. If you have an image or message you want to show to a friend in a different chat, forward it to them.
3. Save important messages to Notes such as information you want to remember and messages you want to show to members who may join the Group later.
