WhatsApp Introduces Three New Privacy Features

Meta’s worldwide instant messaging app Whatsapp has introduced new features as part of security measures to make the app safer and easier for users.

The founder of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg, said: “We’ll keep building new ways to protect your messages and keep them as private and secure as face-to-face conversations.”

The new privacy features added to the latest update include exit group chats without notifying everyone; the power to choose who can see when you’re online for the number of contacts you want; and preventing screenshots from pictures and videos when it is put on view once.

According to Meta, the new features translate to more privacy, more protection and more control by users.

“We believe messaging and calling should always be as private and secure as having face-to-face conversations. Kind of like if two people were talking and no one else was around.
