It happens some times that you send a WhatsApp message to an unintended recipient or an unintended message is sent to intended recipient. You can delete the sent messages and not having see them ever again as long as you realize it on time. But what if you have delete a wrong message which was not meant to be deleted or to the worst scenario delete it for yourself instead of for all the recipients in group chat? WhatsApp is testing a way to undelete the message after deletion.
Two months ago WhatsApp was testing on the option to undo accidental message deletion. The feature is now rolling out to many beta testers on Android with version 2.22.18.13 of the app but some of the users could find the option to undelete older versions as well. Once you have deleted the message for yourself, a floating snackbar notification appears at the bottom confirming you for the deletion. It has also got undo button to help recover deleted message. It should be noted that snackbar is visible only for few seconds and that is all the time you need to change your mind and rescue message from the ether. Many of the apps have similar interface flow for undoing the task and Gmail is one of them.

YouTube does not want its users to share their shorts on other rival social media platforms without taking credit for it and the latest update shows us that YouTube is very serious about it. YouTube has added watermarks to its short videos in order to discourage cross=platform sharing on Instagram or TikTok.
Unlike Instagram or TokTok, YouTube has not been adding watermarks to its videos but that has changes today as YouTube has announced through support thread that it will add watermarks to its Shorts once they are downloaded for sharing on other social media platforms. This change has already been live on its desktop version. IN a few months it will also be available on the mobile phones.
Social media creators prefer to share their content across all platforms to maximize the engagement. So instead of starting from scratch every time it makes more sense to share the same video on other platforms. However, YouTube’s new update aims at bringing people back to the original source of their favorite content. TikTok has done it already with its own watermarks and these watermarks show the creator’s username so you can find the original version on TikTok easily. YouTube’s watermarks may work in the same way.

Archive option is now being renamed as Hidden by Google, so when you open a photo and swipe up on it, you will see Hide option replace the Move to Archive button. We can also notice the same shift taking place in Library tab. The change will come to Photos app on Android.

WhatsApp has been extensively working on the new tools to help you manage the chat groups in its app. The instant messenger has got a feature letting the admins to delete other user’s messages and we have also seen work towards allowing the admins decide who is permitted to join a group chat.
The admin approval feature is a welcome change for safeguarding user privacy and fight against spam especially in the larger groups. It will also prevent potential harassment of the group members. One of the advantages of the feature is that admins can cross-check with existing group members to verify authenticity of a chat request in case they have suspicions. It seems like a major positive move for messaging app. All the users are eagerly waiting for the arrival of this feature.

Snapchat is launching a new supervision tool that will mimic how parents and teenagers interact in real world. The newly introduced Family Center hub allows parents as well as guardians to keep tabs on who their children message with on the app without disclosing what they are saying to each other. Both the child and guardian need to accept the Family Center invite before oversight tool can take effect. Once invitation is accepted, a guardian can see the list of their child’s friends and list of the accounts that they have interacted with over last week.
The developers at Snapchat said that their goal was to create a set of tools designed to reflect the dynamics of real-world relationships and foster collaboration as well as trust between the teens and parents. The feature is meant to copy real-life relationships like when a parent allows a kid’s friends come over but does not monitor everything which they say.
