WhatsApp has recently added a new feature to its platform that allows users to send audio messages that disappear after they are listened to. This new feature, called “View Once,” provides an added layer of privacy for users who want to send sensitive or confidential information.
How to Use WhatsApp’s View Once Audio Messages
To use WhatsApp’s View Once audio messages, you will need to update your app to the latest version. Once you have updated your app, you can start sending View Once audio messages by following these steps:
1. Open WhatsApp and open the chat with the person you want to send the message to.
2. Tap and hold the microphone icon at the bottom right of the chat window.
3. While you are recording your message, swipe up to reveal the View Once option.
4. Tap the View Once option to enable the feature.
5. Tap the send button to send the message.
Once the recipient listens to your message, it will disappear from their chat history. The message will also disappear from your chat history after 14 days if it is not listened to.
Limitations of View Once Audio Messages
It is important to note that View Once audio messages are not as versatile as regular audio messages. For example, you cannot save, forward, or star View Once audio messages. Additionally, if you make a mistake while recording a View Once audio message, you cannot delete the message.
Overall, View Once audio messages are a useful new feature that can help you protect your privacy. However, it is important to understand the limitations of this feature before using it.
