WhatsApp has unveiled a new feature called Chat Lock, which allows users to lock specific conversations for enhanced privacy. With Chat Lock, chats are stored in a dedicated folder and can only be accessed through biometric authentication or a password. This feature also hides locked chats from notifications, providing an extra layer of confidentiality. Chat Lock is particularly useful for those who share their phones or want to keep certain conversations discreet. WhatsApp plans to expand the feature with more options in the future, including companion device locking and custom passwords.
