The user may activate temporary messages for all your new chats from your privacy settings. For this they will have to go to Settings> Account> Privacy and activate that “disappearing mode” whose name in English is ‘disappearing mode’.

According to the description of that future setting, only will activate by default temporary messages for all new chats, so activating this option will not affect existing chats. It seems that the conversations will have to be deleted first.
