How to Send Disappearing Messages on Facebook

There may be times when you want to send confidential messages, like a password, to someone on Facebook. In such situations, you can send disappearing messages on Facebook Messenger . If you want to, follow this step-by-step guide to send a self-destructing message on Facebook Messenger on Android and iOS.

Suppose you want to send a password, internet banking username or other private information that you don't want to store anywhere. At such a time, you only have one option if you want to send it to someone online:a self-destructing message. As the name suggests, self-destructing messages disappear once the predefined filter matches. For example, Facebook Messenger self-destructing messages are deleted after the preset time – 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 1 hour, etc.

This particular feature is available with Secret Conversation , which Facebook introduced a long time ago. However, the problem is that you cannot use this option on the web version as it is only available on the Facebook Messenger app for Android and iOS. Therefore, if you want to send self-destructing messages on Facebook Messenger from your mobile, you can follow this guide.
