Group administrators will be able to delete anyone’s message without their permission. The update will allow users to filter out inappropriate messages from group chats.
Whenever an admin deletes a message, a user will be notified that ‘This was deleted by an admin’.
In Telegram, a rival to WhatsApp, group admins can moderate chats. Currently, only the sender can delete the message sent in a group on WhatsApp.
