Basically, this feature works fine for both individual and group chats. Within days of introducing this feature, it was known that there is a loophole in the app and that the recipient can still take a look at the message that was deleted.

In addition to this, WhatsApp is also rumored to be working on an application for the iPad users. The application is said to be referred to as WhatsApp for iPad. The same was said to be spotted on the latest WhatsApp desktop app.
