Whatsapp, an instant messaging service, has added new security safeguards for its customers. To increase the privacy of users, the platform on Tuesday announced the rollout of several features. The biggest feature might be the protection of privacy when leaving a WhatsApp group. Under the new rollout, WhatsApp is going to ban taking screenshots of ‘view once messages’ that appear. The business will shortly introduce a new feature for this.
Meta-owned WhatsApp said in a statement on Tuesday that with the introduction of the new feature, no one will be able to take screenshots of messages in the ‘view once messaging’ category. Once the person receiving such a message reads it, the message automatically disappears. Apart from this, it will also have the feature that you leave a group and no one will know.
Mark Zuckerberg, the founder, and CEO of Meta announced the introduction of this new feature on WhatsApp, saying that it will help protect user privacy. “WhatsApp is launching some new privacy-related features,” stated Zuckerberg. Allows anyone to exit group chats without notification and gives users control over who they want to know when they are online. There is also a feature to stop taking. Screenshot of View Once Message is also being brought.
Can’t take a screenshot of the View message once
WhatsApp has recently introduced the ‘view once message’ feature, through which the message can be read only once and after that, it disappears automatically. In this way, users get the option that no one can keep a digital record of their sent messages. But after receiving some complaints about taking screenshots of such messages, now WhatsApp has prepared to bring a new feature to improve it.
According to the meta-statement, “WhatsApp is now making arrangements to block screenshots of View Once messages for added security. This functionality is being tested and will soon be available to users.
leave the group without informing
The best feature can be that you leave the group and let someone know. Under this new feature, now when you leave the group, everyone in the group will not get any kind of alert. Just the admin will know that you have left the group. This new feature will be available this month.
Who can see your online status
WhatsApp is coming up with another great feature, in which you will be able to hide your online status. As of now, users have the option to hide the last seen. But now you will also be able to decide for yourself who will be able to see whether you are online at that time or not.
