“Disappearance mode” and “see once”: the most requested changes come to WhatsApp

There are several changes that WhatsApp announced, but two of them stand out: the “disappearance mode” and the “see once” mode, as they are the most requested by users. However, it was not specified when they will be available.

What are they about? The first makes all conversations ephemeral. By having this mode activated, all conversations have an expiration date of seven days, so privacy will no longer be a problem since after that period the conversations will be automatically deleted.

Regarding the “see once” mode, it is used to send photos or videos that will self-destruct once the recipient has seen them, very similar to the origins of Snapchat.

Another of the announced features, and that were already expected, is the support for multiple devices: it will allow you to connect up to four devices to the same WhatsApp account and it will not sacrifice end-to-end encryption. This feature will arrive in a public version in the next few months.
