Question marked as Apple recommended

In addition to the requirement of having iOS 16 to 'unsend' a message using an iOS device, Apple advises in Use Messages on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support that "If you unsend a message to someone on an older version of iOS, iPad OS, or macOS, your contact might still see the message."

I don’t understand I’m having the same issue. Everything is up-to-date I have 16.6 of been able to understand an edit in the past but now all of a sudden not one message will understand or allow me to edit within the 2 minutes and 15 minutes and I cannot find an actual answer other than making sure your iOS is up-to-date and you do it within the allotted time did the devs do something?
