WhatsApp being one of the popular chat messengers has been rolling out updates in the last few weeks and the updates are still on going. Also accounts that violate their policy are being banned from the network as well.
WhatsApp reported that as of September, 2.2 million accounts were banned globally, and more accounts will still enter their black book. Some of the latest updates are to improve the security measures of users of the app.
Below are some of the Latest WhatsApp Updates:
Flash Calls:
The new “Flash call” enables Android users who are installing or reinstalling WhatsApp on their devices to verify their phone number with an automated call instead of an SMS. WhatsApp claims that this is a much safer option, given that it takes place all from within the app.
Message Level Reporting:
You can now report accounts to WhatsApp by flagging a specific message with the message-level reporting feature. You can do this by long-pressing a particular message to either report or block a user. This feature saves you a few clicks when it comes to blocking a user.
Also note that the message level report may come in handy when dealing with spam messages, targeted harassment, unsolicited messages, or messages of an illegal or criminal nature.
Playback Speed:
WhatsApp is now working on a version of play-back speed, making it compatible with audio messages. When you forward a voice note, it’s not possible to speed up the audio because the playback speed button is not available, but a new feature is coming that will enable the playback speed.
These features have been spotted in a recent beta version of WhatsApp beta for iOS, but it’s currently under development, and will definitely be coming on the next versions of WhatsApp beta for Android too.
