A Multifaceted Feature: Local Editing and (Edited) Markings in Messaging
in Post with 0 comment

An exciting prospect arises in the realm of messaging: the ability to locally edit messages with transparency options. This feature would allow users to silently correct errors or refine their communication without altering the message's original appearance for recipients.

Imagine this scenario: A user sends a message with a typo, but wishes to fix it without disturbing the flow of the conversation. With local editing enabled, they could discreetly correct the error on their end while the recipient sees the original, unedited message.

For added transparency, the feature could include an option to toggle an '(Edited)' marker next to the locally edited message. This allows users to control the level of disclosure, indicating to the recipient that the message has undergone a modification. Alternatively, the '(Edited)' marker could be automatically appended to locally edited messages, providing a default level of transparency.

This multifaceted feature offers a unique blend of privacy and clarity, enhancing the messaging experience by allowing for nuanced communication and error correction.
