WhatsApp is working on a new 90-day option for disappearing messages

WhatsApp had released a feature that automatically deletes messages after 7 days in November. It also started working on "view once" messages a few months ago, which, as the name implies, are gone forever after users have viewed them once.

Now, it appears that WhatsApp will include a new message expiry option: 90 days. So whenever all of these features make it out of beta, users will be able to choose between "Off", so messages never disappear, or to have their chats disappear after 24 hours, 7 days, or 90 days.

The new 90-day option has only now made it to the WhatsApp Android beta. WhatsApp will continue to test the features before making them widely available to its users.
