To delete messages from everyone after the time limit, you'll need to use a messaging app that supports this feature, such as WhatsApp. On WhatsApp, you can delete messages for everyone up to 1 hour, 8 minutes, and 16 seconds after sending. Simply press and hold the message, choose 'Delete for everyone,' and confirm. If the time limit has passed, deleting the message from your device will not remove it for others. Unfortunately, not all messaging apps offer this capability, so always check the app's features and use discretion when sending messages.
