# How to edit a message once it was sent

*You can edit the last message you sent from the Inbox if it is still eligible for editing.*

This is useful for fixing a typo, adjusting wording, or correcting a small mistake immediately after sending a message.

# ${color}[#0080dd](Know the limits of message editing)

Editing works only in specific cases.

__Keep these limits in mind:__
* Only the **last** message you sent can be edited
* Email messages cannot be edited once they have been delivered
* Third-party channels such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger do not support Crisp-side message editing

| For email conversations, delivery timing matters. Once the email has gone out, the message can no longer be edited.
