WhatsApp is releasing a new update. With this new update of WhatsApp, users are getting a new secret code feature. The company had announced this secret code feature earlier this year.

The advantage of this secret code will be that even if you give your phone to someone, he will not be able to see your chats. With a secret code, you will be able to lock a particular chat.

For secret chat lock, users will get the option of PIN, passcode, fingerprints, or face unlock. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has given information about the secret code in one of his Facebook posts. According to Meta, a chat locked with a secret code will not be visible in the main chat list.

Updates for new features are being released gradually. After the new update, you will have to go to the settings of the app, go from the chat lock setting to hide locked chat, and then enter the secret code. You have to remember this code.

Like archived chats, a shortcut to the locked chat will appear, but it will not appear in the main chat list. A secret code will have to be given every time to access the chat. Once the setting is done, only you will be able to see that chat.
