What is keep messages feature
The feature is aimed at offering users the option to prevent a message from disappearing. This will allow users to save important messages that they want to keep and prevent them from disappearing as a part of a disappearing timeline. Even when the Disappearing Messages option is enabled for a specific chat, the messages will continue to remain in the chat once the feature is activated.
Furthermore, if a recipient chooses to save a message, the sender will be notified and given the authority to override that decision. Once the sender decides that a message cannot be saved, their decision will be final, and the message will be deleted from the chat, regardless of the recipient’s preference to retain it.
In addition to the introduction of the “keep messages” feature, the latest update incorporates a new button for swiftly sending reactions. Users may also observe that the redesigned menu now includes a reactions bar as part of the recent update.
