The Meta-owned messaging platform ‘WhatsApp’ does everything to keep its users hooked to the platform. This time, too, it has come up with a new interesting privacy feature.

WhatsApp’s new privacy feature will block users to take screenshots of photos, videos, messages, and other media that were shared as ‘View Once‘.

According to a report by WaBetaInfo, “WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.22.3: What’s New?” the messaging platform is releasing screenshot and screen recording blocking for view once images and videos to some beta testers.

The screenshot-blocking feature is a part of WhatsApp’s campaign to strengthen the security and privacy of the messaging platform.

Users must remember that the ‘View Once’ feature of WhatsApp was launched earlier this year.

THE END.
