WhatsApp has launched a new feature for users' chat security and privacy, and it has been termed as Advanced Chat Privacy. This feature on WhatsApp is gradually becoming available on Android as well as on iOS devices and its aim is to avoid unauthorized transmissions of chats outside WhatsApp.
This Meta-owned instant messaging application wrote in its blog post on Wednesday that this feature will apply to both one-on-one and group chats and will provide extra security to the users. No one will be able to export chats. The media sent in the chat will not download automatically. The chat messages will not be utilized in AI features (such as Meta AI). The reason behind this is to keep the conversation private and the chat content cannot be shared outside that chat.
WhatsApp says that this feature is especially useful for groups in which all the members do not know each other well, but the conversation can be sensitive. This feature ensures that the information of the chat does not go out.
