Have you ever sent a message on Facebook prematurely? Or littered with typos? We've all been there, desperately trying to recall a message as soon as we see the blue bubble filled with text appear.
Facebook has answered your calls and is introducing a new feature to its Messenger app, which will give you a 10-minute window to delete a message.
This comes after Facebook-owned messaging company WhatsApp recently gave users the chance to delete messages within seven minutes of being sent.
Twitter user Matt Navara spotted the new addition to the app and pointed out that it is 'coming soon' to users with the 191.0 version of Messenger on iOS devices.
The caption on Messenger in the Apple Store says: "Coming Soon: Remove a message from a chat thread after it’s been sent. If you accidentally send the wrong photo, incorrect information or message the wrong thread, you can easily correct it by removing the message within ten minutes of sending it."
This will be a welcome relief for Facebook users across the world who have immediately regretted sending a message with no way of retrieving it.
While there is not yet a release date for the new feature, we can only hope it's before the festive season gets into full swing: too many tipples can lead to risky messages.
