O Introduced a new functionality called ‘Advanced Chat Privacy’ to improve the safety of interactions on the platform. This tool, which can be used in both individual and group conversations, is especially suitable for dialogues involving sensitive themes. The initiative reinforces the company’s commitment to the protection of users’ digital privacy.

With the activation of this new function, a chat participants will no longer be able to export conversations or use messages on artificial intelligence tools. This measure is particularly relevant in groups where discussions can be delicate, as in support communities, where confidentiality is essential.

To enable ‘advanced chat privacy’, the user must access the desired conversation, click on the group name or contact at the top of the screen and select the corresponding option. In addition to this news, WhatsApp already offers a series of security features, such as end to end encryption and biometrics block.

Other features aimed at increasing data protection include two -step verification, self -destruction messages, and options to hide personal information. These tools have been developed to ensure that users have greater control over their information and can interact more securely on the platform.
