WhatsApp tries to keep its users happy with this feature – the technology

As WhatsApp approaches the implementation of the new privacy policy for its users, starting May 15, the most popular app in the world has tried to keep its users happy by launching an important new privacy feature to protect their data and information about the application.

According to what was reported by the country echo site of XDA Developers, WhatsApp is in the process of providing the feature of encrypting chat backups with a password for users, as the app has already started to use it. Activate for a number of users, this feature will protect the chat database and private media from unauthorized access by hackers or hacked through the use of a password.

The feature that has been enabled for a number of users reveals that the app will not be able to help you recover forgotten passwords, and the following feature will be available for both iOS and Android versions of the app.

Although WhatsApp provides end-to-end encryption, if you use the chat backup feature, your messages and media will not be protected with end-to-end encryption when stored on Google Drive or iCloud, but Backups are only protected by encryption and Cloud storage services can decrypt Encrypt backups if needed, which WhatsApp has solved with the new feature.

Over the past few weeks, WhatsApp has lost millions of users due to the soon to be enforced privacy policy, which requires data sharing with Facebook, which has led to severe backlash from users around the world, causing a mass exodus of hundreds of thousands of users turning to other alternatives like Telegram, Telegram and Signal.
