WHATSAPP is currently testing a substantial enhancement to a feature that deletes your texts automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the update, you’ll be able to enable self-vanishing messages for many existing chats as well as new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We don’t always hold our most ancient writings in high regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having your old communications “unsend” themselves automatically is an excellent method to avoid humiliation later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The WABetaInfo gadget sleuths, who mine WhatsApp for impending changes, discovered the change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The default message timer only affects new individual chats when you enable it,” WABetaInfo explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“However, WhatsApp is currently developing a new alternative for your existing chats<\/a>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WhatsApp is currently developing a new feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a future update, WhatsApp is working on a new feature that will allow us to convert several existing conversations to disappearing chats. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new shortcut will allow you to enable disappearing messages for multiple chats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This eliminates the need to toggle each chat manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All new messages in the conversations will vanish once you enable the setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, no release date has been set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Unfortunately, this feature is still in development,” WABetaInfo noted, “therefore there are no further specifics on when it will be pushed out to beta testers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“However, whenever the feature is enabled, we will update this website with a new changelog.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disappearing Messages may currently be enabled to switch on automatically for all new chats \u2014 without affecting existing conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In total, there are four options: 24 hours, 7 days, 90 days, and Off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disappearing Messages is enabled by default for all one-on-one chats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The setting can be chosen by either person in the discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t worry about losing old information because it won’t update or destroy any of your existing chats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A notification will also appear informing anyone participating in the conversation that their communications will be removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This notice will tell you how long you have till the texts vanish forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that this system isn’t flawless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Someone might still capture your texts by taking a snapshot or copying them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, unless you’re contacting someone you totally trust, if you truly want to keep something off the internet, don’t publish it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
