WhatsApp is Getting Self-Deleting Photos Soon
WhatsApp is reportedly testing another Telegram-like feature that will allow users to send disappearing photos. In November last year, the Facebook-owned platform rolled out disappearing messages and now, it is planning to extend the feature to photos as well.
This new feature will allow users to send time-limited images like Snapchat. As soon as the receiver clicks on the image, the timer will start.
WABetainfo has also showcased the new feature via a Tweet. The video shows a new icon appearing inside the edit section of the media before sharing it. As per the report, a ‘blue color’ toggle beside the ‘Add Caption’ text box will let users set the time after which the image will self-destruct. Clicking on the icon will also show a pop-up message that says, “This media will disappear, once you leave this chat”.
