WhatsApp users were today told to change their settings to keep their chats safe. BirminghamLive reported the platform highlighted some changes in a new blog.
"Deciding how long a message lasts should be in your hands," said WhatsApp. "We've become accustomed to leaving a digital copy of just about everything we type without even thinking about it.
"It's become the equivalent of a note taker following us around making a permanent record of everything we've said. This is why we introduced disappearing messages last year, and more recently a way for photos and videos to immediately disappear after being viewed once."
