Story summary
- WhatsApp is testing a single-read “view once” message feature in its iPhone TestFlight beta.
- Users can long-press Send to choose “view once,” letting the recipient read the text a single time.
- After opening, the message disappears and cannot be copied, forwarded, shared, screenshotted, or screen-recorded.
- The trial covers individual chats and groups, excludes channels, has no release date, and follows similar features on Snapchat, Instagram, Telegram and Messenger.
