If someone tries to open your WhatsApp on your computer using the browser version (Web) to pry through the messages - you can place a barrier with the message "Confirm it. Touch the fingerprint sensor", says the website Wabetainfo, which monitors the various beta versions that WhatsApp releases to Update on upcoming innovations.
And this is an important update, because right now anyone who has managed to get their hands on your smartphone can access the app and open your WhatsApp account in the browser version without your knowledge.
The new feature is currently in beta, and will arrive in one of the next versions of WhatsApp for Android in the coming weeks or months.
Alongside this, WhatsApp will soon allow you to choose a different background for each conversation. And while this is only a cosmetic innovation, many have been especially looking forward to it. In Wabetainfo, they discovered in the beta version of Android that when you try to change background, you will see another window with two options - set for the specific call you are in, or for all calls.
