Social media giant Facebook introduced ‘vanish mode’ feature on Messenger and Instagram tools. With this feature, a user can send messages that disappear automatically once the receiver views them. The users can also turn on the feature by swiping up on their mobile devices on an existing chat. The users will be immediately notified when a receiver takes a screenshot while using the ‘vanish’ mode.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media, this new feature is also opt-in, which means that a person can choose whether to foray into the vanish mode with someone or not. Also, the model is available to only people one is connected with on Instagram and Messenger platforms.

“Now a user can send memes, GIFs, stickers, or even reactions to share what they think when you can’t exactly find the words to describe, or just be silly with the connections without revealing it in the chat history,” a Facebook official release read.
