Need to share sensitive information with confidence? WhatsApp now lets you send voice notes that automatically disappear after being listened to only once.
How to do it:
– Open an individual or group chat in WhatsApp.– Tap and hold the microphone icon, swipe up to lock the recording.– Tap the “1” View‑Once icon when it turns green to enable it.– Record your message and tap send – it disappears after first playback.
What it’s for:
Perfect for sharing short instructions, passwords, or reminders – without a lasting voice note in your chat history.
We suggest: Voice messages sent this way will expire after 14 days if not opened and cannot be forwarded, saved or starred. Ensure the recipient has read receipts enabled so you know when they’ve been received.
