New Telegram option goes beyond WhatsApp and Messenger

Messenger and WhatsApp give your users the option to delete messages in their apps, an action that only removes messages in the senders' own accounts and not those of the recipients. Well, Telegram wants to give more control to users with the ability to remove messages from the whole conversation, regardless of whether it's the sender or the recipient.
Engadget says that the latest update made to the messaging app allows you to erase almost entire conversations, preventing the recipient of certain messages from using them in the future.
Telegram's founder, Pavel Durov, says that the goal is to give "full control" to the user instead of requiring confidence from everyone with whom to exchange messages. Miguel Dias
