Temporary messages are an optional feature that you can enable for more privacy in your app. When you use this function, you can choose whether messages disappear after 24 hours, 7 days or up to 90 days.
The latest setting only affects new messages in the conversation. You can enable temporary messages for all conversations or just specific ones. Messages sent or received prior to enabling this setting are not affected.
The change that users have discovered is very simple. That is, whenever the user chooses to save a temporary message in the group, it must be in this new window. Remembering that the tested version is 2.22.21.12 for Android systems.
The window, called “Kept Messages”, appears in the group's settings, showing that only administrators can save messages, although anyone in the group can view them. In this way, temporarily saved messages are converted to normal messages almost automatically.
However, another aspect of this new update is that it doesn't have the option to favorite conversation messages. This is because WhatsApp does not allow you to mark temporary messages as favorites, that is, those with a little star on the side.
WhatsApp's posture is that the new tool can help users who send important messages in temporary mode, allowing the messages to remain. This will prevent the message from disappearing so that it remains in the chat even after it expires.
At this time, we don't know when this update will reach the public with a stable version of the app. So far, WhatsApp has not commented on this change in temporary messages. In addition, it is worth remembering that not all beta versions are officially released by the company.
