New WhatsApp Feature of Expiring Groups to be Introduced Soon

The Quint  

So, the other participants in the group have to set expiration dates, else their messages will remain in the group even after they have been seen. This setting is perfect to create a group chat for a specific event like birthday parties, dinner nights, sudden night outs, etc. Thus the Expiring Groups setting will help the creator set a deadline to delete the group. Even with the latest beta version of WhatsApp, users may not be able to see the new Expiring Groups option for now. In addition to Expiring Groups, WhatsApp has also been working on options to edit sent messages, a new newsletter feature that will help distribute messages to a large number of users.
