WhatsApp has just started to release those features for more beta testers today."

The design change was already visible to a few beta users with the previous update. The report also mentions that with the new beta version, a few users may also receive the activation of the new interface for Group Info.

With the beta update, the company has added 90 days and 24 hours options for the feature. Till now, the disappearing messages are automatically removed after 7 days.
Meanwhile, WhatsApp is reportedly working on extending the time limit for the 'delete for everyone' feature. The 'delete for everyone' feature was rolled out in 2017 and initially had a time limit of seven seconds that later got extended to 4,096 seconds in 2018.
WaBetaInfo revealed that the time limit for using the 'delete for everyone' feature may be increased to an indefinite period. The publication even shared a screenshot where it showcased that a message from three months ago was still eligible to get deleted for both people.
