In the meantime, WhatsApp, an instant messaging service owned by Meta, has begun testing its shortcut button for vanishing messages. The company made the capability available to a select group of its Android beta testers.

According to rumours, WhatsApp was revising the current "disappearing messages" section in the app's beta for Android 2.22.24.9. Both new and old talks are now marked as vanishing threads due to the feature's easing. Also available for more testers is the 2.22.25.10 upgrade for the area with disappearing messages.

It's interesting to note that the messaging app is introducing a second entry point for its disappearing messages function. Some of the testers were able to use the new functionality after installing the newest WhatsApp beta for Android, according to a report by WABetaInfo (2.22.25.11 version).

The Manage Storage section has a link to the new shortcut feature, which is marketed as a space-saving device. After using this new feature, it will be simple to mark both recent and historical talks as "disappearing threads."
