Once viewed, pictures and video messages will automatically disappear - recently the messaging service Whats App has come up with such a feature.
The Facebook-owned service has come up with the feature to compete with rival Snap chat.
In a blog
post about the new feature that came out last week, Facebook said that the new
feature of Whats App is called 'View Once'. Photos and videos sent using it
will disappear from the conversation once viewed. After viewing the content,
those messages will be shown as 'open'.
Snap chat of
Snap Inc. is well known for its storage features. The feature allows users to
post for 24 hours, after which time the post disappears. Many people had to
stay home during the epidemic last year, and the feature has grown in
popularity, Reuters reported.
Snap is not sitting still. The service is adding new features to attract more users to its platform.
In March of
this year, the news came that Whats App is testing the feature that the picture
will disappear. At that time, it was reported in the media that if you click on
the blue toggle in such a picture, a warning message will also be shown. In
that message, Whats App will inform the user, "Once you leave the
conversation, the media will disappear." The blue toggle can be found next
to the 'Add Caption' text box.
