WhatsApp continues to add new features to the app on
a regular basis in order to stay ahead of the competition. This leads to users
having access to very useful chatting functionalities. These new WhatsApp chat
features may provide new functionality, improve user privacy, or change the
interface. Last month, the app began testing its planned
multi-device feature with a small group of beta users, as well as end-to-end
encrypted backups for a limited time. All users of the app will now have access
to a new ‘View Once' feature for disappearing photos and videos.
WhatsApp was beta testing the new View Once feature
for images on Android, as we previously
reported. WhatsApp's disappearing photos feature has finally
been implemented in the stable version of the app. The feature works in the
same way that Instagram's expiring media feature works. When you use this
function to share a photo, it will disappear once the recipient opens it and
exits the conversation. However, each time you wish to send a view once photo
or video, you must select View Once media.
WhatsApp has confirmed that any photo or video sent
with the 'View Once' feature will not be saved in the recipient's Photos or
Gallery. WhatsApp won't be able to show a View Once photo or video again once
you've sent it. You won't be able to forward, save,
star, or share images or videos sent or received with the View Once media feature
in the messaging app. If you have read receipts enabled, you can only see if
a recipient has opened a View Once photo or video.
Facebook outlined the reasons behind the new feature
in a blog
post published on Tuesday. While the company claims that the feature is
designed to improve user privacy by automatically deleting messages after a set
length of time, there is another reason why WhatsApp implemented this option:
to keep your phone neat.
To send a View Once photo or video to someone on
WhatsApp, use the app's camera to quickly take a photo or video, then tap the
(1) icon to send the media which you just captured as View Once media. You
won't be able to tap to open the image once it's been sent, and the receiver
will only be able to see it once.
When will the View Once feature be available on WhatsApp? According to WhatsApp, the feature will be available to all users this week, so if you haven't received it yet, it'll only be a matter of time.
