After installing the WhatsApp iPhone or iOS23.7.72 and the Android 2.23.8.3 update, this feature was already released to some beta testers.
WABetainfo said the feature would become available for everyone since it has been highlighted in an official blog post.
Disappearing messages allow conversations to delete after a set period automatically.
The feature is an extra layer of privacy for users but can also make tracking important messages difficult.
With this option, users can save specific disappearing messages for future reference.
The Sender still has control over messages
The blog post stated that the sender would be notified and given a choice to veto the decision when someone keeps a message from disappearing. If the sender chooses the upkeep option, the sender still controls the messages.
Messages kept from disappearing will be marked with a bookmark icon and listed in a new section called 'Kept Messages,' available within the chat info, allowing users to access the messages they have chosen to keep easily.
The ability to keep messages from disappearing will be released to users globally in the coming weeks.
