TamilWhatsApp enables disappearing messages
7 December 2021, 11:48 am
WhatsApp on Monday announced that its users will now have the option to turn on disappearing messages by default for all new chats.
Meta-owned platform said that it is adding two new durations for disappearing messages: 24 hours and 90 days, as well as the existing option of 7 days.
When enabled, all new one-on-one chats you or another person start will be set to disappear at your chosen duration, and we’ve added a new option when creating a group chat that lets you turn it on for groups you create, WhatsApp said in a statement.
This new feature is optional and does not change or delete any of your existing chats, the company added.
WhatsApp introduced disappearing messages last year, and recently introduced a way for photos and videos to immediately disappear after being viewed once.
For people who choose to switch on default disappearing messages, we will display a message in your chats that tells people this is the default you’ve chosen, the company noted.
