Typo ruin your social media masterpiece? Starting today Facebook will let you edit a post’s text after you publish it. The feature comes to Android in an update today, and to iOS soon. Previously you had to delete your post, lose all your Likes and comments, and repost to edit something. Android users also get emotion and activity sharing, events at a glance, and photo album creation today.
To edit posts, you’ll be able to click the down arrow in the top right of one of your posts and select ‘Edit’ to change the text. Your revisions and original post will still be viewable if friends check your post’s edit history, though.
The long-requested Facebook feature was likely held back because the company was scared users would bait and switch each other. Imagine if a friend posted “Like this post if you hate Justin Bieber”, and you liked it, but then they edited it to say “Like if you LOVE Justin Bieber”. That could defame your music tastes. But Facebook apparently found that the edit history section was enough to deter people from such trickery.
