Your disappearing messages will last for <em>seven days<\/em> on the chat.<\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cOur goal is to make conversations on WhatsApp feel as close to in-person as possible, which means they shouldn\u2019t have to stick around forever. That\u2019s why we\u2019re excited to introduce the option to use disappearing messages on WhatsApp,\u201d the Facebook-owned chat app said in a statement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>WhatsApp has been experimenting with this feature in the app\u2019s code for a while now. However, as WABetaInfo has noted, these tests had disappearing times from seconds to hours.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, other messaging services such as Signal offer time limits ranging between a couple of minutes to a few hours. But WhatsApp\u2019s seven-day limit is rather unusual.\u00a0The company said that it\u2019s starting with this range \u201c<span>so you don\u2019t forget what you were chatting about.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Self-destructive messages can be handy if you want to send sensitive details such as private photos or financial details that you don\u2019t want to be around forever.\u00a0<span>However, the seven-day limit might hold some folks back from sending certain kinds of information \u2014 begging the question of whether it\u2019s the worst of both worlds, rather than the best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>You can learn more about WhatsApp\u2018s ephemeral messages feature\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/faq.whatsapp.com\/general\/chats\/about-disappearing-messages\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><i>For more gear, gadget, and hardware <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> and reviews, follow Plugged on<br \/>\n            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/plugged\">Twitter<\/a> and<br \/>\n            <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/flipboard.com\/@thenextweb\/plugged-54nihknvy\">Flipboard<\/a>.<br \/>\n            <\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"c-post-pubDate\">\n                                    Published November 5, 2020 \u2014 09:20 UTC\n                                <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script data-src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&amp;appId=378011798897423&amp;version=v2.6\" id=\"socialSrcFacebook\" type=\"text\/template\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more like this article, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Technology category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/11\/05\/whatsapp-will-now-let-you-send-ephemeral-messages-but-theyll-last-7-days\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#WhatsApp will now let you send ephemeral messages \u2014 but they\u2019ll last 7 days&#8221; WhatsApp is finally rolling out ephemeral messages, the ones that\u2019ll disappear after a fixed amount of time.
