WhatsApp is bringing new features to give its users a great experience. The company has now brought another useful WhatsApp feature 'View Once'. The specialty of this feature is that once you read the message or view any photo and video, it will automatically disappear. That is, if you send a message to someone, then the recipient of the message will be able to see the message only once.
How Will The New Feature Work?
WhatsApp has currently introduced this feature for beta users only. In the View Once feature, you will be able to send the disappearing photo from the phone's gallery itself.
1) To use this feature, tap on the watch icon after selecting the photo.
2) While sending any photo or video, you will see the option of View Once near the caption bar. 3) Select the option.
Messages Will Automatically Disappear After Viewing Once
Any kind of your message will disappear once you see this new feature. If you share any photo or video through this feature, then the other person will have one chance to see it. The sender of the message can also know if the message has been delivered and viewed. However, the recipient of the message can take a screenshot of the message without the knowledge of the sender. At present, there is no system to recognize screenshots on WhatsApp.
After the introduction of this new feature, you need not delete your sent messages. With this, the chatbox of WhatsApp will not be full and it will save you the trouble of deleting the messages.
