This feature will be helpful to the users who receive important information like addresses or phone numbers. There will be a section in the Contact Information section that says “Kept Messages.” This will have all those messages that you stopped from disappearing if the chat with the said contact is disappearing. The release timeline is currently unclear. It will also be available on future betas of both the Android and apps.
