New Features Add In Official Whatsapp Version Update Your Whatsapp App
New features add in official Whatsapp version update your
Whatsapp app
Having biometric unlocking on your device is a necessary
security inclusion that ensures that valuable data on your phone stays secure.
The latest WhatsApp beta for Android increases your device security by adding
the much-anticipated fingerprint locking — which is available starting today.
Despite the fact that a Dark Mode is probably a little more
requested, the fingerprint unlocking has been in the pipeline for some time —
it even made it to iPhones in a previous beta update.
Spotted by WABetaInfo, the new app authentication method is
available if you update WhatsApp to the 2.19.221 Android beta version. It shows
in the app settings as Fingerprint lock and should be rolling out now if you
are already enrolled in the beta program.
Once you’ve configured the Fingerprint lock in your updated
version of WhatsApp, it’s worth noting that you will still have the ability to
read messages on the lockscreen and notification shade.
How Can Use Fingerprint Lock On Whatsapp ?
After enabling the Screen Lock feature for iOS beta users
(more than 3 months ago), WhatsApp is finally ready to release it for all
Android users! ... You need to update your WhatsApp version to the 2.19.221
Android beta version in order to use the Fingerprint lock feature.
You’ll even be able to use the Android quick reply to
respond to messages and chats. Therefore the Fingerprint lock only applies when
you want to open the app.
WhatsApp is known for actively developing multiple features simultaneously, and testing them for months before releasing them for the general public. The popular instant messaging platform has been working on big features like dark mode, a new multi-platform system, and new UI elements this year. It brought along features like improved group privacy settings, fingerprint unlock feature, and even Netflix trailer in-app streaming support this year. WhatsApp and Facebook integration was initiated with the introduction of a new feature called Share to Facebook Story. It essentially lets you share your status on Facebook, if you so prefer to do so.
This, and many more WhatsApp features were rolled out, or are being tested this year. Here's a rundown of all them. Before we proceed, we've segregated this post into three sections – features that have already been rolled out and are available for commercial use, features that are being tested in beta, and features that were spotted in to be under development and haven't been enabled for beta testing as of yet. The last option is the most ambiguous, and some of the features mentioned there may or may not make it to the testing phase. For that matter, some features mentioned in the beta section may also never see the light of the day in a stable rollout.
