WhatsApp is owned by Meta, which also operates Facebook and Instagram. It has been said on behalf of WhatsApp that it is giving more options to the users regarding the period of deleting the message. This feature was first launched in November last year, when users had the option to disable the message after seven days.
But now users will have the option to make the message disappear even after 24 hours or 90 days. There were reports about this earlier also and then this function was being developed.
It is also worth noting here that turning on the defaulting of Disappearing messages will not affect the existing chats, that is, they will remain in your phone. When you start a new one-on-one chat, a notice asking you to turn on the Disappearing Message feature will appear. Users will also have the option to turn off the setting for individual chats.
The new default setting will have no effect on group chats. The company has said that the new features are available on all platforms. Instructions on how to use them can be found in the FAQ page of WhatsApp.
