Disappearing messages is an optional feature you can turn on for more privacy. You can set messages to disappear 24 hours, 7 days, or 90 days after they’re sent unless that message is kept. The duration you choose only affects new messages in the chat, not messages you’ve already sent or received. 

You can choose to turn disappearing messages on for all chats or select specific chats. In individual chats, either you or the person you’re messaging can turn disappearing messages on or off. Anyone can turn disappearing messages on or off in group chats by default. But, group admins can change group settings to allow only admins to do this. 

You can set disappearing messages as default for new individual chats by tapping Settings then tap Privacy then Tap Default message timer and selecting a duration.
