In simple terms, this feature allows you to send media either photos or videos which will be automatically deleted once you open it. Media sent or received using the WhatsApp View Once feature cannot be forwarded, saved, starred, and shared. However, if you don’t open it at all, the message will expire automatically after 14 days.
Not only the recipient, but you as the sender will also not be able to see it again. The WhatsApp View Once feature is also protected by end-to-end encryption, meaning that WhatsApp cannot access media, similar to private messages.
