Whatsapp New Privacy Features Alert: 2 days undone messages,3 More updates coming
In terms of sending messages that are over two days old, WhatsApp offers a few advantages.
WhatsApp confirmed the update in a tweet on Tuesday.
A WhatsApp unsend feature essentially allows you to delete an already sent message that has already been sent, regardless of the fact that the message has already been sent more than two days ago. A previous limit of one hour, eight minutes, and sixteen seconds was set in place for the duration of the event.
💠Rethinking your message? Now you’ll have a little over 2 days to delete your messages from your chats after you hit send.

As of soon, WhatsApp will be introducing a new feature that will allow users to send videos or photos twice by sending the video or photo twice. It is not possible to take screenshots due to software limitations.
Leave groups in a silent manner.
The administrator of the group is the only one who will be notified of your decision to exit a group chat – everyone else won’t know what’s happening.
