The feature was under beta testing for over a month. It will begin with effect immediately only for users with the updated version of the app.

Earlier, WhatsApp offered an hour and eight minutes to delete for everyone unwanted, irrelevant or mistakenly sent text messages.

A comment by WABetaInfo suggested that WhatsApp users will now have two days and 12 hours to delete their messages.

2 days, 12 hours 🤫
