According to the screenshot shared by WABetaInfo, when the message is clicked, the “edit message” option will appear and the message can be edited. Of course it has a time. You have 15 minutes to edit chat and group messages. So, it’s a feature to fix typos. Messages can be edited more than once. Currently, only text messages can be edited.
