WhatsApp is testing a new dynamic to make it easier to enable disappearing messages in all the chats we want without having to go one by one.
At the moment, it is only a test, but it could become a practical option that will save us time.
So you can choose the chats with messages that disappear
Surely you have already lost count of all the functions that WhatsApp has in tests. We have already seen the one that gives the possibility of using voice notes in the states or the one that will allow us to link a second mobile to our WhatsApp account.
And there are still more functions that are on the way and that already show some clues in the beta versions of WhatsApp. For example, WABetaInfo noticed that WhatsApp is testing a new dynamic for disappearing messages.
Until now, WhatsApp allows us to enable disappearing messages in a specific chat or group. That is, we have to individually choose the chat that we want to apply that dynamic. An option that we can activate from the chat / group or from the app settings.
However, in the new beta version of WhatsApp this dynamic changes, since it allows us to activate the messages that disappear to several chats at the same time. An option that we will find in Settings >> Account >> Privacy >> Temporary messages >> Default duration.
Instead of having a link to see “More information”, we will be shown a new option to select all the chats we want. In this way, we will not have to open each chat to activate the temporary messages, since we will be able to carry out this process in batches, in a single time.
Of course, the rest of the dynamic is the same as we know. We can specify that messages be deleted after 24 hours, 7 days or 90 days.
