Google is reportedly developing a message editing feature for its messaging app, hidden in the latest beta version (20240213_01_RC00).

30-minute edit window

Users can edit messages sent within the past 30 minutes by long-pressing on a sent message and clicking the pencil icon.

Original & edited display

Both original and edited messages will be displayed for reference on the receiver's profile.

Separate edited texts

If the recipient doesn't have the feature enabled, the edited text will be sent as a separate message.

Double-tap gesture removal

The latest beta also introduces a double-tap gesture to remove reactions, following an earlier APK teardown revealing Instagram-like gestures for reacting to messages.
