The platform is also working on a new ‘kept messages’ feature for users to keep disappearing texts. The kept messages are saved like a starred message, located in a different section within chat info, WABetaInfo said. According to the report, WhatsApp will alert users when it is impossible to keep a disappearing message. The feature is under development and is set to release at a later date.
