New Delhi . WhatsApp is preparing to bring a new feature to chat privacy for its global users. WABETAINFO said in a report last week that WhatsApp is developing a chat privacy feature for Android users, which will limit message sharing. This feature was seen in WhatsApp Beta for Android 2.25.10.14. Now the company is also going to bring this feature for the iPhone. WABETAINFO has seen this feature in the WhatsApp beta for iOS 25.10.10.70 on the Testflight app and has also shared a screenshot of it.
New privacy option in chat info screen
You can see this feature in the shared screenshot. The new feature of WhatsApp is going to offer a new privacy option in the chat Info screen itself. This option helps users activate the privacy of an advanced level for individual and group chats. According to the report, this feature will not automatically save photos and videos to be shared during the conversation of the device of other members after getting enabled.
Option to export chat history also block
Apart from limiting media saving, this feature also blocks the option that exports the entire chat history, so that the user cannot transfer the chat outside the app. WhatsApp wants to protect users' sensitive conversion in its ecosystem through this feature. Blocking the export feature will also help prevent unauthorized sharing of user's data. This data will also work to protect from leaks.
Forward will be able to do individual messages
This new feature of WhatsApp is very useful for those users who do not want their chat, save, or archive without share. This feature will protect users to personal photos, private interactions and conferences group conversions. According to the report, even if this feature remains active, users will be able to forward individual messages, so that the app will continue to be the app. This feature of WhatsApp will be completely optional. Users will be able to manage it differently for each chat. The company is currently developing this feature and its beta testing is going on. Soon its stable update may rollout for global users.
