WhatsApp with the new functionality desired by users for a long time

It is the latest addition to the WhatsApp application and is available to all users.

From now on, the platform will hide the user’s online status to give him more privacy and avoid unwanted interactions.

Invisible online status for unknown user contacts

The WhatsApp application launches a new function for all users that will be very useful and will respond to the requests of many. From now on, the platform will hide your online status from unknown contacts.

To do this, the platform is changing the default settings of the application. In other words, before it was defined by default that all WhatsApp users could see the last time they were online. But now and with the configuration change, only your contacts will know the last time you were connected.

Contacts designated by strangers are those who are not in your list of contacts or users with whom you have never had a conversation on the platform.

Therefore, pay attention to sensitive contacts, such as at work. If they are part of your list of numbers or if you are already in a group chat, their status will be visible to all those contacts.

The new feature aims to protect and increase the privacy of users of the chat platform. According to the WABetaInfo website, various third-party applications have been misusing the online status of WhatsApp users.

By “modifying” the settings defined by default, as is the case, third-party applications will no longer be able to perform these bad practices.

Automatic deletion and encryption of messages on the WhatsApp platform

But for some time now, the chat application offers more privacy options. Recently, for example, WhatsApp automatically deletes messages after a user-defined period of time.

On the other hand, more and more shares can be encrypted within the platform. Gradually, users are allowed to encrypt the backup of conversations taking place on WhatsApp.

Meta, formerly known as Facebook and the owner of the application, has been making frequent updates to the platform, in order to offer more functions to its users, in addition to providing the greatest possible privacy.
