How to send a self-destructing message
There are a few ways to send a self-destructing email. One option is to use an app like SafeNote. The app is available for Windows, macOS, and iOS and provides end-to-end encryption. It also lets you send all kinds of media, including self-destructing messages.

To send a self-destructing message, you need to first set a timer for it. First, go to the messaging app you use. On iOS, tap the 'Disappearing Messages' icon in the top-right corner of the screen. Then, choose the recipient and set a timer. This timer will determine how long the message or file will stay visible before it disappears.

How to set the timer
You can set the self-destruct button on a message to self-destruct after a certain period of time. You can see the timer next to your profile picture or at the bottom of the chat window. It is also visible when you send a picture. You can see if your image has been seen by others by looking for a checkmark. If it has received two checks, the timer has started.

To set a self-destruct timer, you must be in Secret Chat. You can also use this feature if you want to protect your identity. If you want to keep your private information private, you should set the timer to one week. Alternatively, you can set it to a period longer than one week.

How to turn a key
Imagine you're in an office and you're looking at a stack of TPS reports headed straight for your office. You'd like to turn the self-destruct button, but you don't know how to do it. It's easy, though, and you can do it by using a key.
