WhatsApp’s Exciting Upgrades: Enhanced Security, 3D Stickers, and More on the Horizon
WhatsApp's Exciting Upgrades
WhatsApp users have a lot to look forward to in the coming updates, as the popular messaging app gears up for some exciting enhancements. The latest beta versions of WhatsApp have revealed these upcoming features, thanks to the diligent team at WABetaInfo who spotted them.
One of the standout features is the option to secure your WhatsApp account with an email address. This additional layer of security aims to protect your account from unauthorized access and potential malware threats. It will also simplify the process of verifying security codes.
The best part is, this email protection will be entirely optional. Users who prefer not to link an email address to their account can rest assured that it’s not a mandatory step. It’s important to note that this feature is distinct from the email address used during the initial setup of two-step verification.
