WhatsApp enables users to lock their chats
The notifications of these chats will also not be displayed on the mobile screen.


California: The new feature of WhatsApp will be useful for many users as now highly private chats will be protected.
Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg on Monday turned to Facebook and announced WhatsApp's new feature called ‘Chat Lock’. He wrote that new locked chats in WhatsApp make your conversations more private.
“They're hidden in a password protected folder and notifications won't show sender or message content,” Zuckerberg added.
The company is passionate about finding new ways to keep your messages private and secure, and today we're excited to introduce a new and exciting Chat Lock feature to users, WhatsApp said in a blog post.
Under this feature, all user chats will be protected because the user will be able to lock any chat he wants, that is, a password will be applied to it, which will only be accessible to that user.
In case of chat lock, a separate folder will be created on WhatsApp itself like 'archive chat' was created earlier. The chat lock folder will contain all the chats that have been locked by the user.
The notifications of these chats will also not be displayed on the mobile screen.
Regarding the use of this feature, WhatsApp has also released a video on YouTube, by watching which users will be able to understand this feature better.
