WhatsApp has rolled out probably the biggest feature of the recent times which will change your chatting experience forever! The Facebook-owned platform has been testing the self-destructing message feature for individual chat since last year.
The feature has been leaked several times but was yet to be rolled out. However, the instant messaging app has finally introduced it for Android users. The catch is that the feature is only available for beta users as of now and could soon be made available globally.

According to WhatsApp tracker WABetaInfo, WhatsApp self-destructing for individual chat is available for Android beta users now. The feature works differently from the already available delete message feature. The latter allows users to delete messages but leaves a banner behind. On the other hand, self-disappearing message feature lets you set a time frame after which the message is removed from the window without leaving any residue.
WhatsApp self-destructing message feature: How it works and how to get
- The feature is only available on WhatsApp beta for Android. You need to update to the latest beta version of the app to get the feature.

- Open any chat where you want to use the feature.
