Oh nahiii! You won’t be able to screenshot conversations as proof anymore.
No sharing with friends, no keeping an eye on your partner, no being able to share images from WhatsApp groups.
WhatsApp is working on improving security for our chats. Soon, WhatsApp will add a feature where you cannot take a screenshot of your chats.
WhatsApp is also working on its doodle feature. This feature will allow users to add stickers, emojis, text and hand-drawn content. However, the features are under-development. The new features are expected to make their way to a new version of the app in the coming weeks.
Do you think it would be a good feature? Yea or Nay?
