WhatsApp tests 24-hour time limit for its disappearing messages feature

After the seven-day limit, WhatsApp is now testing and developing a Disappearing Message feature with the 24-hour option for personal and group chats.

According to WABetaInfo, a website that tracks WhatsApp in Beta, revealed that the disappearing message feature will be available in a future update.

“WhatsApp won’t replace the 7 days option, but 24 hours will be an addition,” the report said on Sunday.

WhatsApp will soon include the 24-hour option in the section where people are used to enable/disable disappearing messages for personal and group chats.

When the user chooses “24 hours”, all messages sent/received after this change expire after 24 hours, so they will disappear from the chat.
