WhatsApp: will group conversations soon have an expiration date?!

WhatsApp will offer a new feature to put an end date on conversations.

WhatsApp is an application that is now starting to date! For at least a decade, many people have been using it to speak individually or in groups. So, with the passage of time, somewhat abandoned common cats tend to hang around the bottom of the screen. Finally, not for long with this new function.

Fixed-term groups

WhatsApp is currently quite inventive with its proposals for new options. Meta’s instant messaging would thus work in particular on the possibility of editing messages already sent.

But it wouldn’t stop there, according to WaBetaInfo. Indeed, another function being tested would allow you to choose in the settings an expiration date for group conversations, whether it is a day, a week or even a date of your choice.

Arrived at the fateful moment, the group will disappear. But rest assured, this end is not irremediable. If in the meantime you have changed your mind and no longer wish to delete this entry, you will always have the option of undoing the upcoming deletion.

The end especially for you

It should be understood that WhatsApp here wants to allow you to clean the screen that displays your various conversations in order to remove old discussions from your phone in which you no longer participate. For this reason, your departure will not mean the end of the chat of which you were a member.

And if you forgot that the feature was active, the messenger will not stupidly remove your access to the chat. Indeed, according to the findings of WaBetaInfo, you will be ” prompted to clean up groups on expiration date by the app.

At the moment, this new option is in its beta version for iOS. But if it were to see the light of day, there is no doubt that Meta should also make it available to smartphones running Android.
