The Best New Feature For Wats App
WhatsApp has some good news for iPhone user
WhatsApp has some really good news for iOS beta users of the messenger app. The Facebook-owned company has finally introduced a biometric authentication feature. The latest unlock feature is available in the new 2.19.20.19 beta update. With the new update, there will be an option to unlock WhatsApp using Face ID or Touch ID.s
Owners of iPhone X and the other newer devices are getting the Face ID authentication whereas older generation iPhones that do not support Face ID are getting the Touch ID option.
"We already talked about the Authentication feature, but it was not publicly available. Finally today WhatsApp has released the feature for all beta testers, and we have noticed some small improvements!" WABetaInfo, a WhatsApp beta news tracker site, said.
With the addition of Face ID and Touch ID support, the messages will surely become a lot more secure than they previously were. WhatsApp already has a strong back-end security feature. The end-to-end encryption of WhatsApp has made it difficult for anyone to intercept the messages. However, the front end was still not as secure. With the introduction of Face ID and Touch ID, nobody will be able to access your chats in your absence.
- Head to WhatsApp settings, Accounts and select Privacy.
- To enable the authentication feature, select screen lock from settings.
- If you have an iPhone X or newer, Face ID will be available, otherwise, if you use an iPhone with a fingerprint sensor, then you will see the Touch ID option.
