As WhatsApp rolled out its new disappearing messages feature, several internet users took to Twitter to share their thoughts with hilarious memes. The new feature will let users send a message that disappears after seven days of sending it. WhatsApp, in a statement, said that they started with seven days because they thought it offers “peace of mind” that conversations aren’t permanent while remaining practical so users don’t forget what they were chatting about.
The feature can be enabled by either user in a particular chat and it is also available for group chats. However, in the case of groups, the disappearing messages feature can only be enabled or disabled by any of the group admins.

It is also worth noting out the media files sent in a chat will still be downloaded on your device if auto-download is turned on, although they will still disappear from the chat. Also, a disappearing message will not disappear in a forwarded chat.
