Apple unveiled a number of upcoming enhancements for its software platforms at its WWDC 2022 event, including the option to edit messages you've already sent in the Messages app. 

Three of the most frequently requested features for iMessage users will be addressed by the improvements, according to Apple senior VP of software engineering Craig Federighi. Users will be able to unsend messages and mark threads as unread to conveniently return them later.

In the fine print of its event news release, Apple states that users will have 15 minutes to amend or unsend a message, and they will have up to 30 days to restore any deleted messages.

After sending a message, users have up to 15 minutes to change it or recall it. They also have up to 30 days to restore recently deleted communications.

Naturally, after the new features go live, you might not have as many errors to correct since there is a new Dictation experience that "lets you smoothly shift between speech and touch." When using voice dictation, the keyboard will remain open and will recognise emoji as you speak.

A button for the feature in Messages makes it simpler to text back and forth while you watch with a friend. Another change will add a list of SharePlay-ready applications directly into FaceTime so you can instantly check which ones are available. Apple will release a developer preview of iOS 16 today, and the company intends to make the new software available to customers in a public beta next month, so you may test out the enhancements as soon as possible → For access, simply register here.
