WhatsApp, the world’s most popular messaging platform, aims to provide a better experience to its users with the innovations it works on. The application, which has become more involved in social and business life, especially since the groups are active, applies various innovations in this field.
WhatsApp will report inappropriate messages to admins with “Report”, people in the group
WhatsApp puts a lot of emphasis on the groups section. So much so that it occupies an important place in daily use. The company has taken a step to prevent offensive messages. With the WhatsApp Report feature, people will be able to report messages they deem inappropriate to their group administrators. The feature is available in Android 2.23.10.8 Beta.
With the new feature, people can access the “Report” option by clicking on the message they deem inappropriate. After clicking this button the notification goes to the group manager. The administrator can then take action to delete the message or to warn the sender. WhatsApp believes that the following advantages will come, especially the new one.
- Help keep groups safe and free from abuse
- Report messages that users find offensive or harmful
- Give group admins more control over the content shared in their group
- Helping create a more positive and welcoming environment for all users
WhatsApp continues to work on a number of new features. The platform is focused on the security of users. Finally, the platform is testing a number of features in the Beta program aimed at helping protect users from account theft.
The messaging app has started testing three new features: Account Protection, Device Authentication, and Automatic Security Codes. First, Account Protection targets users who switch devices. Verification will be requested from the old phone before switching to the new device.
Another innovation, Device Verification, will add an additional layer of security. WhatsApp reported that it will introduce new checks to help you verify account identity. Finally, user information will be stored encrypted with Automatic Security Codes.
