Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO at Meta has given a subtle warning to all the users of Facebook about taking screenshots of chats when Disappearing Message is enabled. The CEO asked the users from refraining from the practice as Facebook will send a notification to the other user about it.
Chats in this mode vanish the moment they are read. But if a person takes a screenshot of the said message, you still have a copy of the text sent. The new change ensures people are alerted about such moves.
The Disappearing mode has been around for a while. Snapchat brought it first to the market for users. Then Facebook decided to use it for its products like Messenger and WhatsApp as well. The Vanish Mode can be activated on Facebook by selecting a few steps:
Step 1: Open the particular chat that you want to edit and tap the chat name at the top of the screen.
Step 2: Now scroll down to the ‘Privacy & Support’ section.
Step 3: Click on the Vanish mode.
Step 4: Tap to turn on Vanish Mode for the particular chat.
