WhatsApp, the world’s most popular messaging platform, is constantly introducing new features and updates to give users an improved chat experience. The latest update brings some useful new features and improvements which will make WhatsApp chats more convenient and secure.
Dark Mode
The much-requested Dark Mode feature has finally arrived on WhatsApp with the latest update. This feature gives users the ability to switch to a dark theme for their chats, making it easier on the eyes when chatting at night. To enable this feature, you must go to Settings > Chats > Theme > Dark.
Forwarding Restrictions
WhatsApp has put in place a forwarding limit to prevent the spread of misinformation through messages that have been forwarded multiple times. Now, users can only forward a message up to five chats at once instead of 20 as before. This update is aimed at curbing the spread of false news or hoaxes on the platform.
Privacy Controls
WhatsApp has also added some new privacy controls in its latest update which will allow users to control who can add them to groups or who can call them. Users can now choose between ‘Everyone’, ‘My Contacts’ or ‘Nobody’ for these settings.
Biometric Authentication
WhatsApp now supports biometric authentication for iPhones and iPads running iOS 13 or later versions, allowing users to unlock their app using Face ID or Touch ID instead of entering their passcode each time they open it.
Share Your Status
Users can now share their status directly on other apps and platforms such as Instagram Stories or Twitter using the Share button in WhatsApp Status section. This will help users easily share their WhatsApp status with other social media contacts without having to take a screenshot first.
In conclusion, the latest WhatsApp update brings several useful new features and improvements that make chatting more secure and convenient for users all over the world. From dark mode, forwarding restrictions, privacy controls, biometric authentication to sharing your status with others – there’s something for everyone in this update!
