WhatsApp has launched a new 'Advanced Chat Privacy' feature, which makes your chats completely secure and prevents them from being exported.

There is a great news for WhatsApp users. If you thought that your chats could ever get leaked, then now your worries are going to end. Actually WhatsApp has introduced an 'advanced chat privacy' feature in its new update, which will make your private conversations even more secure. 

After activating this feature, it will not be possible for anyone to export or leak your chats. Let's know about this feature and how to activate it.

One step ahead of WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption

WhatsApp already offers end-to-end encryption, which means that your chats are kept only by you and the person you are talking to. The advantage of this is that it is impossible for any third person to read or access your chats, but there was a small loop hole in WhatsApp's old system. If you were in a group chat, any member had the option to export that chat. This could lead to your chats being leaked.

Now WhatsApp has eliminated this loophole. Through the 'Advanced chat privacy' feature, no one can export your chats. This means that your privacy has become even stronger now.

How does this feature work?

With this new feature, when you chat with someone or are part of a group chat, no one can access your conversation. This will keep all your chats completely safe within WhatsApp. This means that now no one can send your chats outside nor will any third party have any way to access your chats.

How to activate the feature?

If you also want to make your chats more secure, then you can easily activate this feature. Here are its steps:

1. First update WhatsApp. Go to Google Play Store or Apple App Store and install the updated version of WhatsApp.

2. Now open the chat in which you want to activate the 'advanced chat privacy' feature.

3. Go to the chat and tap on the name of that person.

4. Then turn on the 'Advanced Chat Privacy' option.

That's it, now your chats will be completely secure.

Things to note

  • The 'Advanced chat privacy' feature still doesn't prevent screenshots. However, the next step might be for WhatsApp to introduce a screenshot-preventing feature.
  • Apart from this, WhatsApp has recently launched another great feature, which allows you to delete a part of any chat, giving you even better control over your privacy.

This new update of WhatsApp takes the security of your chats to a new height. Now you will not have to fear your chats getting leaked. With this update, WhatsApp has proved that it is very serious about the privacy of its users. So don't delay, turn on this new feature as soon as possible and make your chats secure!
