The social media giant, Facebook has rolled out a new feature for Messenger called the 'Remove for Everyone' by which users will be able to 'unsend' or delete the message, just like WhatsApp. The new feature, for now, has been rolled out for users in Lithuania, Bolivia, Poland, and Colombia. This new feature will be up for both Android and iOS users. This feature has been rolled out after it was tested on Mark Zuckerberg’s personal chats, earlier this year.

With the 'Remove for Everyone' feature users will have a time limit of 10 minutes to delete the message. The message is being rolled out in a phased manner and will soon be available for everyone.

Steps to follow-
- To begin with, open the Messenger app on the smartphone.
- Now go to the chat window, where you would want to delete the message from.
- Go and select the message, followed by pressing and holding it for some time.
- Once selected, tap on the 'Remove' option.
