"WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.1.1: what’s new? WhatsApp is working on the ability to delete any message in groups for everyone if you're a group admin, in a future update," wabetainfo, a website that tracks WhatsApp, wrote on Twitter.

According to the report, WhatsApp was planning to remove any limitation about message revoking, but their new plans implemented on the WhatsApp Desktop beta 2.2147.4 update reveal that WhatsApp will allow deleting messages for everyone within 7 days and 8 minutes.

"Today, WhatsApp has released the 2.22.1.1 update, the first beta update for the next year. This update reveals new plans about the message deletion in groups, in a future update: the ability to delete incoming messages for everyone if you are a group admin," the report said.

WhatsApp is also enabling new privacy measures to protect users. Unauthorized third-party apps cannot see your last seen and online status anymore. Also, the messaging application is also working on a feature that will enable users to restrict certain information including their 'Last Seen' and profile picture from specific contacts.

WhatsApp is also adding new functionality to its disappearing messages feature, which will allow users to set messages to be automatically deleted after a set period of time. The messaging application said that users will now have the option of turning on disappearing messages automatically for all their new chats.
