Facebook Adding Vanish Mode on Instagram and Messenger That Lets Users Send Disappearing Messages

Facebook Messenger and Instagram are getting a new mode that will auto-erase messages from a chat right after the user exits the mode on either of the phone apps. Notably, both Vanish mode and Disappearing Messages are inspired by Snapchat.

Facebook explains that the Vanish mode on Instagram and Messenger can be activated by swiping the screen up, and the same method can be used to regain the regular chat interface.
