WhatsApp is currently testing a new feature for its iOS app that allows users to send messages which disappear after being viewed. Once the recipient opens the message, it will automatically be deleted, enhancing message privacy. The test was reported by GSMArena. This feature builds on WhatsApp’s existing disappearing message function, which allows messages to vanish after a set duration. The new “view once” option provides an immediate, post-view deletion. Currently, the feature is limited to testers on iOS, and there is no confirmed timeline for wider release or availability on other platforms. This update aims to give users greater control over their digital footprint and message security within the popular messaging application.
