The "Disappearing Messages" feature allows users to enable auto-deletion for sensitive topics or to reduce clutter from unnecessary message storage in both group and 1-1 chats. This feature automatically deletes chat messages for everyone after a set period. This timer applies only to messages sent after the setting is changed. Messages sent before will not be affected by the new setting.
Supported chats:
- 1-1 chats with regular users, group chats, department groups, user groups, and chats with yourself.
