Or is it only for blue iMessages within a few minutes?

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering. :)

Use Undo send to retract (within 2 minutes) a message you sent accidentally, deleting it from both your phone and your recipient’s phone.

And only works for blue iMessage (with iOS 16, iPadOS 16.1, macOS 13, visionOS 1, or later).
