WhatsApp is planning to borrow another page from the Snapchat playbook. In addition to the ‘View Once’ photos and videos, Meta’s messaging platform is soon to introduce ‘View Once’ messages, which will be an extension of the disappearing message. Check out the details below.
A recent report by WABetaInfo suggests that WhatsApp is developing the option to send ‘View Once’ text messages similar to sending images and videos of the same category. With this, the text messages will vanish just after being viewed, much like it happens on Snapchat too.
It is revealed that the ‘View Once’ text messages can’t be forwarded or copied. The same can’t be done for ‘View Once’ media. There’s a high chance that the ability to take a screenshot will also be blocked. To recall, WhatsApp recently announced the screenshot-blocking feature for ‘View Once’ photos and videos.
