Delete a message or a chat

Delete for yourself, delete for everyone within an hour, or remove the whole chat from your inbox.

Updated 25 September 2026

Delete for me: removes the message from your side only.
Delete for everyone: available for one hour after sending; the other side sees “message deleted”.
Delete chat: swipe the chat in the inbox. It is removed for you; the other person keeps their copy.
