title: Edit and delete your messages
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Instead of a centralized server, Status uses a [peer-to-peer network][about-status-messages] to store and distribute messages. When you edit or delete a message, the peer-to-peer network distributes your changes to other users running the Status app.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, users may still see your original messages, even after you edit or delete them. For example, some users can:
|
|
|
|
- Run an out-of-date version of the Status app that isn't fully compatible with the peer-to-peer network features.
|
|
- Run a custom build of the Status app that doesn't support message editing and deletion by choice.
|
|
- Disconnect from the network before receiving your latest changes.
|
|
|

|
|
Be careful with what you share, especially in communities. Once published to the network, what you shared may still remain on someone's device even if you choose to delete it later.

### What to expect
|
|
|
|
- You can edit and delete your Status messages with no time limitations.
|
|
- You can only edit text messages. If you want to change a message that contains media content, consider [deleting](#delete-your-messages) and re-sending it.
|
|
- Once you edit a message, a permanent note appears next to your message saying it was edited.
|
|
- In communities and group chats, you can hide messages you don't want to see with **Delete for me**. Everyone else will still be able to see this message.
|
|
- To delete a message for everyone, select **Delete for everyone**. You can only delete your own messages.
