Whatsapp introduces new features on regular basis. Some of them are helpful to users and some might be not so helpful to users.
Today when I sent a message in a group, after that admin of that group changes group’s setting to Disappearing messages.
After this Whatsapp has given a message that the new message will be disaapper after 7 days.
When I searched for the details then I got the details as follows
- After Disappearing Messages on, the new messages will be disaapper after 7 days.
- Previous messages won’t be disappeared.
- If some one forwarded that message to other group where Disappearing messages setting is of, then that message won’t be disappeared from the forwarded group.
- Downloaded media from the Disappearing messages on group won’t be deleted from the phone of individuals who downloaded the media.
Note: If someone took screen shot or forwarded to other group the message may not be disappeared.
Note 2: only Group admins can change the settings of Disappearing messages.
Note 3: Disappearing messages can be turned on and off in individual chats by individual also.
