Can someone see if you unsend a message on iMessage?

The straight answer is yes. Someone will see if you unsend a message on imessage because on the other person’s iMessage, it will show unsent a message.

For example, you sent a text message to lizzy and realized that you shouldn’t supposed to send the text message to lizzy, you quickly unsend the text message. As long as lizzy received the sent text message from you, it will show Unsent a message.

Let’s say your name is Lucy, and that’s what lizzy used in saving your contact. It will show, Lucy unsent a message.

Once lizzy sees this on her iMessage conversation with you, this will indicate to lizzy that you sent an iMessage and unsend the text message.

For me, there’s no big deal in this compared to when you cannot unsend an iMessage or sent text messages on iMessage.

When you delete an iMessage does the other person see it?

The answer is no. The other will never know if you delete an iMessage, but rather will know when you undo a sent text message or edited the text.

Since the introduction of ios 16 which let’s users undo a sent text message even when the recipient has received and opened the sent text message. Also the ability to edit a sent text message on iMessage.

However, there’s no feature that will let the other person know when you delete an iMessage except if you undo a text message on your iMessage or iPhone.

Again, since the release of ios 16 version, we have the Recently Deleted feature on iPhone.

This is like a trash bin on the android phone and I love the fact that Apple added it to ios 16. This means that if you delete a text message and be it iMessage or sms text message on your iPhone, it won’t be permanently deleted but rather will move into the Recently Deleted folder on your message app.

The temporary deleted text message will have a grace of 30 days to be in the folder until it will be permanently booted out from your phone.

I’m saying this for you to know that if you delete a text message on your iPhone, it will only be temporary deleted until you permanently get rid of the message from the recently deleted folder.

This is very lovely indeed just like the trash bin on google messages and I do hope that iPhone in general will have the trash bin for files and not just for text messages.

So if you know that you made a mistake by sending a text message to someone on your iPhone, you only have three minutes to make the necessary changes else there’s nothing you can do about it.
