Can I recall a text message already sent?

Unfortunately, it’s not possible to unsend a message. Google has an unsend feature to Gmail, but text messaging with Apple is, for now, a one-way service and once the message has been delivered the other person can read it. So, you need to cancel the message before it is delivered.

How do I delete a text message I sent to the wrong person?

Answer: A: If you’re talking about email or text messages you’ve sent to the wrong person, yes, you can delete them off of your device. However, that doesn’t undo the mistake. Whoever you sent the message to will still get it.
