WhatsApp Disappearing Messages: WhatsApp is one of the most popular instant messaging platforms. To make sure that it remains relevant for users, the Meta-owned company keeps on announcing new updates. According to reports, the company is now working on 15 new durations for disappearing messages.
For the uninitiated, the platform currently offers support for three durations for disappearing messages. The durations are - 24 hours, 7 days and 90 days. According to a report by WABetaInfo, the new durations will be present under the "More options" menu.
The new durations under the more options could be - 1 year, 180 days, 60 days, 30 days, 21 days, 14 days, 6 days, 5 days, 4 days, 3 days, 2 days, 12 hours, 6 hours, 3 hours and 1 hour.
This will undoubtedly give users more control over the messages they send and receive with the addition of more durations for disappearing messages.

The report further mentioned that the 1-hour duration will likely be helpful for messages containing sensitive or confidential information because it will enable users to send a message that vanishes quickly, preventing the message from being saved on the recipient's device for a long time.
For those who are unaware, disappearing messages is a feature that allows users to send messages that disappear from both the sender and receiver's chat after a certain period of time.
