Meta founder,\u00a0Mark Zuckerberg<\/a>, has introduced a number of features on the text-messaging app, Whatsapp. Some of these updates have gone under the radar and aren\u2019t known by many users.<\/p>\n

Here are 10 whatsapp features you probably didn\u2019t know about:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Chat Edit:<\/strong> WhatsApp rolled out this feature in May 2023, this update allows you to edit a message after it\u2019s been sent. So users can correct typos or rephrase sentences.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

2.\u00a0Whatsapp on multiple phones<\/strong>: It\u2019s now possible to have\u00a0WhatsApp\u00a0<\/a>running on multiple phones. This feature allows you to have a primary phone and a secondary phone both offering up your WhatsApp chats, allowing you to send and receive from either device.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Send your location to a contact:<\/strong>\u00a0WhatsApp allows you to send photos and videos to contacts, as well as share a contact or document, but you can also send your location.<\/p>\n

\"whatsapp<\/figure>\n

4.\u00a0Save your data usage:<\/strong> If you\u2019ve got a limited data allowance, you don\u2019t want WhatsApp munching it all away. Thankfully, you can customise when media is allowed to download, as well as ensure calls use as little data as possible.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Customise wallpaper for specific chats:<\/strong> This feature gives you the ability to select a specific wallpaper for a specific chat.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0Disappearing Messages:<\/strong> This attribute will make any new messages in a chat disappear after a specified period of time.<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0View once photos\/videos:<\/strong>\u00a0It is now possible to send an image or video that disappears once the recipient has viewed it once.<\/p>\n

\"WhatsApp<\/figure>\n

8.\u00a0Stop images and video from appearing in your gallery:<\/strong>\u00a0Sharing photos and video on WhatsApp is great, but you might not want it added to your phone\u2019s gallery.<\/p>\n

9.\u00a0Video Note:<\/strong> This feature allows users send video notes in the same format as voice notes<\/p>\n

\"WA<\/figure>\n

10.\u00a0Chat Lock:<\/strong>\u00a0On Android and\u00a0search<\/span>\u00a0iPhone<\/a>, you can turn on the chat lock feature to password protect your most personal chats. In order to read or send messages, you\u2019ll need to unlock your chats using device authentication, such as your phone passcode, Face ID or fingerprint. These chats will be kept separate from your other chats in a Locked chats folder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
