Edited Texts

What’s the point of being able to unsend or edit a text message, if the person you sent it to can see that you edited it or unsent it. Doesn’t that defeats the whole purpose of being able to change it???

No, Stephanie, it does NOT defeat the purpose. (1) You can fix the text before they even see it unless they are sitting on your txts. (2) many texts are confusing with minor mistakes that can be fixed with an edit. So instead of just being able to edit the message, now one has to send another message correcting the first message. It's extremely annoying and time-consuming
