According to the most recent beta release v5.12.1 of Signal Messenger includes “Disappearing messages” for conversations. By enabling this feature on Signal, you can send messages that disappear. New messages sent in the individual or group chat will vanish once enabled. “One week” is the maximum time limit that can be defined.
Changelog: v5.12.1
- You can now set a default disappearing message timer for new conversations, so you won’t be reminded if you start off on the wrong foot
- Letting go can be hard, but our new custom disappearing timer can help you find a little more time to process those fleeting messages before they’re gone forever.
How to do:
1) Open any of your Signal Messenger conversations.
2) Tap the three dots in the top right corner > Disappearing messages > Pick a time that suits you.
