Facebook-owned WhatsApp is rolling out its “View Once” feature, which deletes photos or videos from your chat after they’ve been opened by the recipient.

When sending a photo or video, you can make it view once by tapping the “1” button to the left of the send button. After the recipient opens it, it’ll be deleted.

WhatsApp is rolling out the feature to everyone starting this week.
