You’ll most likely have to block them to stop receiving messages. This will successfully remove the said contact from your group but users must note that only the admin can remove members from the group. Click on the Members icon, you’ll find all the group members listed here. Go to the contact you want to remove and click on the info icon. Go to the People icon in the bottom right corner of your screen.
There is no time limit in place, so you can go back to your Facebook account even a year later. Deactivating also allows you to continue using Messenger without a change. Your old messages will still be visible, alongside your name and profile picture. Deactivating your account does not fully delete it.
Or, alternatively, you can use Secret conversations. This option brings end-to-end encryption to Messenger messages and calls along with disappearing messages. You can set a time frame when messages will auto-delete. Also, you won’t be notified if recipients download or forward the videos before you remove them for everyone. If you’re really self-conscious about messages you send, you can use the Vanish mode that will delete seen messages the moment you close the chat. So, the feature conveniently called Unsend is still alive and well and you can use it to delete text messages, videos, photos, or attachments with ease.
According to Distractify’s latest report, Facebook’s latest update works just like Snapchat. This feature is the one that made it popular among people who were dating, especially teenagers. However, the reality is that even if you are warned, the other person was able to take the screenshot.
Right after selecting a single message, you would get an option to perform various tasks. Without selecting multiple messages, you won’t be able to delete them as well. If you often use the Instagram chat feature, be aware that it is possible to delete messages sent on the social network.

Only people you’re connected to can send vanishing messages, and it is an opt-in setting you have to choose to use. Vanish mode will be available on Instagram as well thanks to the new Messenger experience. Since safety is a priority with the feature launch, you’ll be notified whenever someone takes a screenshot of your chat on vanish mode. It’s a good reminder to know that if you feel unsafe, you can always block someone or report a conversation. Another reason why you may not be seeing vanish mode is Messenger because the feature only works on one-on-one chats between people who are following each other on Instagram.
