How to Send Disappearing Photos on WhatsApp

TL;DR To send disappearing photos on WhatsApp, use the "View Once" feature when sharing media.

Using 'View Once' Feature

WhatsApp introduced a "View Once" feature that allows users to send photos and videos that disappear after being viewed. To use this feature, open a chat, tap the attachment icon, select the photo or video you wish to send, and then tap the "1" icon next to the send button. This will ensure that the recipient can only view the media once before it disappears from the chat [1].

Privacy Considerations

When using the "View Once" feature, it's important to be aware of privacy implications. While the media disappears after one view, recipients can still take screenshots or screen recordings. It's advisable to consider the sensitivity of the content before sending it [1:5]. Additionally, WhatsApp does not notify users if a screenshot is taken, so trust in the recipient is crucial.

Additional Tips

For added security, avoid sending sensitive images to individuals you do not fully trust. If you find yourself in a situation where compromising images are threatened to be shared, it is recommended to ignore the threats and not engage with scammers [1:2], [1:6]. Always prioritize your safety and privacy when sharing media online.

Ignore it and/or tell them to fuck off. If they send them then so be it. Explain the situation to your family and that’s that.

Contact police or FBI. Do not respond to any emails / requests / messages from the blackmailers. Very unlikely that they go through the trouble of sending out videos to anyone. Also, don't sent dick picks to strangers.

Yea I always had dense hair and so one day I decided I'd grow my hair out and it'd look rad. Except my hair had thinned out so much that my long hair was super stringy and lifeless. It looked extremely bad. Even 3 months into taking meds, my hair looks so revitalized. Truly crazy. I might have to grow my hair out in a few years if/when I've had a good recovery from meds!

justanotterance · 3 days ago

am I allowed to say it doesn’t even look bad? your hairline seems to be the same, density might be slightly lower and overall hair health is slightly lower as well. For 4 years I think this is a very recoverable loss (if any). Just like anyone would suggest here, getting on a usual fin & min regimen and sticking to it (meaning don’t be scared of sheds and stop) is the only viable option.

Definitely get a blood test done & make sure you get all vitamins & micronutrients you need. Good luck 🙏🏼

I mean, your thinned hair is something that many people on here would envy, but the parting is wider, yeah. You might consider a diferent style that maximises the hair you have, and not try to hold onto the old style. That might be the best way to transition into a different phase. Bottom line is, while your hair might not be 100% what it was, it is still better than so many people your age. Make the most of it!

How do police determine how many units to send to a call?

Posted by TacticalJock15 · in r/AskLE · 4 days ago

My neighbor across the street called the cops on her ex-boyfriend because he was allegedly threatening her with a firearm.

Only two officers showed up. Honestly, I thought there would be more than that. If you’re dealing with a suspect who might have a gun, wouldn’t more than two squad cars normally be sent?

I was picturing maybe 8–10 cars, not just 2.

How do departments decide how many units to send to something like this? Was I just overestimating what kind of response it usually gets?

You want them to send a full swat team out to every call?

People will commonly claim that they "might" have a gun in an attempt to get a faster response.

Riku3220 · 4 days ago

The number of units to send is usually pre-determined by the agency and dispatch just sends what they need. Two officers is a perfectly normal amount for a domestic. Officers can always put themselves on the call or request more backup if needed.

I would say that if your agency had 8+ units ready to send to a domestic and it wasn't a hostage situation, then they could probably be using their resources better. Half of them could be doing traffic or drug enforcement or anything else really.

We hired a bunch of people after I had a few years on and our shift ended up having 8 guys on the road one night. 5 of us responded to a domestic in progress and once things were calm my Sergeant looks around goes “alright half of you get out of here please.”

hotfezz81 · 4 days ago

The first officer on scene (or a 2nd phone call) can boost it from "domestic" to something a bit more urgent.

I only sent my first letter out yesterday, idk if she’s gonna reply or not, but ngl even one letter felt like a lot of mental gymnastics (I kept overthinking on what to write & didn’t wanna come off as weird, so I even showed it to my sister & she said it sounds weird 😭)… I don’t even know what to write about… Also, I noticed some bio’s kinda sounds like people r looking for relationships, honestly I just wanted to try out a genuine penpal journey (100% platonic), if it’s some dating site in disguise please let me know, I’ll humbly make my exit

I know the feeling , it can be overwhelming sometimes but my tip is very simple , write what you feel . I had some pen pals where they were honest on how they did not know what to write to me so for me to get them into some comfort, I would write silly or fun ice breaker questions that always does the trick. I send around 20 letters a week.

Also if you want to add me let me know as well, I love learning about cultures and traditions of the countries and people.

In your profile under "matching preferences" you can exlude topics like "relationship" and "sex", and you won't see the profiles of those looking for that.

And write in your Bio that you are only interested in platonic.

When I use auto-match I send out max 3 letters per week, and I usually get 1 reply out of 3. In that case you can prepare a general letter and choose 1 main topic (tell them it's an auto-match), because you don't know anything about the penpal, yet.

When I go through profiles, I check if they have a bio, their sent/reply ratio, and their answering time. I only write to those who have a profile, so that I can tailor my first letter showing that I read their info.

I keep a maximum of 8 penpals at once (a few write every week, other once a month). With them the length average from 600 to1200 words.

Be patient because it's called Slowly. And be prepared to being ghosted, but be kinder, and say goodbye when you fell there is nothing more to share 😊.

If it makes you feel better, writing letters is a skill that you improve the more you do it! The first letters I sent were... not good (and didn't get a lot of replies), but I feel like now that I've been using Slowly for a couple of months, I'm getting better at figuring out 1) if someone is a good candidate to be my penpal 2) what to write, and the replies have been more consistent, though not guaranteed. Some people might not reply, and it's not necessarily because the letter you wrote isn't good enough, it's just how it is. Also, if you sent the letter yesterday, give your penpal some time to reply, some users take days, weeks or months, it's just part of the charm of the website. In any case, if you want to add me, I'd be happy to help you with your letters and be your penpal :)

I sent out 40-45 letters to new people when I first installed the chat. (A month ago) Now, I share letters with eight people and out of those eight, four are fast repliers. So, it's like we share letters to each other regularly or on alternative days at max with those four.

Light exposure is too much in this photos. So tuning ISO might help, and choose less light noisy time. Mostly I prefer midnight for photography especially moon photography. Use a camera leveler future for fixing correct orientation. If you are using a mobile phone for astro photography then use gcam mods, there is specific photography section known as night sight, select that one and tune ISO and shutter speed, max your focus. If you are using a camera then, buy a good astro friendly lens, and watch astro photography content, which helps you with technical aspects of professional photography. And if you are into editing, then take photos in HDR+ or RAW format, and edit using Adobe ps or gimp.

When you change the DNS settings through your device’s settings, your ISP may still override those changes by using their own DNS servers. To ensure your DNS queries are handled by Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1, you can use the Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 app. This app helps you bypass your ISP’s DNS settings and forces your device to use Cloudflare's fast and secure DNS service.

how to send disappearing photos on whatsapp

To send disappearing photos on WhatsApp, follow these steps:

  1. Open WhatsApp: Launch the app on your device.

  2. Select a Chat: Choose the chat of the person or group you want to send the disappearing photo to.

  3. Attach a Photo:

    • Tap the attachment icon (paperclip) in the message input field.
    • Select "Gallery" to choose a photo from your device.
  4. Enable Disappearing Mode:

    • Before sending, look for the "1" icon (which represents the disappearing message feature) next to the send button.
    • Tap on it to enable the disappearing photo feature. This will ensure that the photo can only be viewed once.
  5. Send the Photo: Tap the send button. The recipient will be able to view the photo only once, after which it will disappear.

Key Considerations:

  • Recipient's Settings: Ensure that the recipient has the latest version of WhatsApp, as disappearing photos may not work on older versions.
  • Screenshot Warning: Be aware that recipients can take screenshots or screen recordings before the photo disappears, so use this feature with caution.
  • Privacy: Disappearing photos are a great way to share sensitive content, but always consider the trustworthiness of the recipient.

Takeaway: Using disappearing photos can enhance privacy in your conversations, but remember that the recipient may still capture the content in other ways.
