If you are also using this feature of WhatsApp, then definitely know these 2 things.
keep these 2 things in mind
Chat lock doesn’t work on web version
- If you have locked a chat in WhatsApp, then it will not remain locked in WhatsApp web version. Which means anyone can see it. If you leave your account open on WhatsApp web then the other person can read your chats.
- If you keep the chat lock folder open and forget to close this window, then even in this situation anyone can read your chats. It would be better if you turn off WhatsApp and then leave the phone somewhere, this will not disturb your privacy. Actually, this can be a kind of bug that the company should fix in the coming time. But till when this will happen, there is no information about it yet.
this is the solution
To avoid this problem, we are telling you a solution. You can fix this by turning on the fingerprint lock feature in the messaging app. The advantage of this will be that even if your chat lock feature does not work, but with fingerprint lock no one will be able to read any of your messages because a secondary security feature will be added to the app. To lock the app, you have to open WhatsApp and then go to Settings and go to the Privacy section and turn on the fingerprint lock feature.
