Secret Chat In Telegram

When it comes to security and privacy Telegram is far far better than its competitors.

Self destructing messages is one of exclusive features available on Telegram which make it different from other messaging apps. This feature enables chat with full safety and security messages which you send are auto deleted after a pre-specified time or you can say self-destruct.

How To Send Self Destructing Messages

First select the contact you want to send self destructing messages then on the top right corner select the profile photo.

After that select more and then select ‘Start Secret Chat’ a new secret chat window will open up for the selected contact.

Now at the bottom in the message box there is a timer symbol click on that and set the time for self destruction of the messages.

 

In the above picture you can see that highlighted line saying “you set the self-destruct timer to 1 second”. Now any message sent or received in this secret chat window will be auto deleted after 01 second.
You can select your own time also you can turn off the timer from the selection window. Also note that this self destructing feature will be applied to both sent and received messages.
