Sky Sports News has partnered with WhatsApp to bring fans the latest behind-the-scenes news and action via the platform’s privacy feature View Once on Transfer Deadline Day, the window during the year where football clubs can transfer players. 

In August 2021, WhatsApp introduced View Once, a feature that allows users to set photos and videos to automatically disappear from a conversation once they’ve been viewed a single time.

The feature saves storage space on a user’s device, and it can also be used to keep information, such as Wi-Fi passwords, more secure.
