How to send photos and videos that autodestroem in the Telegram

The Telegram for iPhone (iOS) application now lets you upload photos and videos that self-destruct after viewing them. Before, it was already possible to perform this procedure in secret chats. However, the new feature allows you to send pictures that come out alone in normal individual chats.

The functionality is present in chat applications like Snapchat, Facebook Messenger and Instagram. Remember that in WhatsApp the option does not exist natively, but there is a trick to send messages that are self-destructive in the messenger. See, in the tutorial below, how to send self-destructive photos and videos on the latest version of Telegram. The procedure is not valid for groups.
