We all chat with friends, family members, and everyone we know. For that purpose, we use any messenger to deliver our message. WhatsApp is one of them used for chatting and video calling. WhatsApp is so popular that every third or fourth person knows about it.
But if you are in the US, you probably do not know about WhatsApp Messenger, or maybe you do not use it, but other than in the US, it is so popular worldwide. This is all because it is free and they don’t charge you, and also this is so secure that it is most popular worldwide.
If other people use your phone and you do not want them to read your messages, we will tell you the best two ways to protect your chatting from others, so let us look at them.
Two Ways to Protect Your WhatsApp Chat
1. Archiving Your Chat
If you want to hide your chat from someone, you need to do only these two steps.
Select all chats from WhatsApp and click on the three dots, then click on the archive option and archive it. This will remove all the discussions from the WhatsApp home page. The home page will look empty, but it is not. So you still have all these chats in your archive list.
You must repeat the same procedure to unhide the chat and like all the conversations on the home page. First, you have to click on the three dots, and then there will be an option on the second spot named archive. Now click on that option to see all the secret chats. Next, select all these chats and click on the unarchive option. It will be shown on the homepage of your WhatsApp.
2. Lock Your WhatsApp
The second way is more straightforward than the other because you have to lock your entire WhatsApp so that no one can readout you single.
Locking Whatsapp on Android
If you have an Android smartphone and want to lock WhatsApp, you have to download the app locker, or if your smartphone has a vault of your own, you can also use it.
From the above trick, you can protect yourself and your chatings from others.
Locking WhatsApp on iOS
Suppose you have an iOS smartphone and want to lock WhatsApp. Then you can use the face id to unlock WhatsApp. Then, you have to add the application to the lock. After that, every time you open WhatsApp, it will require face recognization to be open. Without you now, one can open WhatsApp.
