Can I do that without the other party knowing or being able to override it? I would check it myself but signal requires a phone number so I can't.
- Y_Y 5y agoLooking in the app I can't see a way to do that. It seems like you just set an expiry time which applies to the chat as a whole, and anyone in the chat can change it, which sends a notification (which doesn't expire). Maybe you could patch it and build your own client though.
- Vinnl 5y agoNo, your client will send a message to the other participants saying that conversation history is now stored. Of course, you can just take screenshots or memorise the messages and write them something else - as mentioned in TFA, the feature is not meant to be used with an adversary.
