whatsapp roll out multi-device support One of the biggest updates to the application in recent years came to beta testers last month. This feature allows users to access their WhatsApp account on different devices even if the primary device is not connected to the Internet. However, some users are facing problems in deleting the chat.
When using the multi-device feature, deleting chats from a device does not delete them from WhatsApp Web or WhatsApp Desktop. This is because chats are only deleted from the device you are using and not the desktop version of the application.
Now WhatsApp Working on a solution to this problem. As per a report by WABetaInfo, the Facebook-owned messaging platform is testing a new feature to sync chat deletes across devices.
After choosing to delete messages, users will be notified that messages will be deleted from this device and other devices using the latest version of WhatsApp.
This feature is currently under development and will be rolled out to beta testers first in a future update.
WhatsApp multi-device support is available on Android and iOS for users affiliated with the application’s beta program. Multi-Device Beta is an opt-in program that gives you early access to try out the new version of WhatsApp for Web, Desktop, and Portal.
WhatsApp is also planning to change its Privacy settings To allow users to hide their profile picture, last seen and ‘about’ from specific people. As of now, the application allows users to choose between ‘Everyone’, ‘My Contacts’ and ‘None’ when selecting the privacy settings for their account. Now it will be adding the option of ‘Accept my contacts…’ in the privacy settings.
