  • WhatsApp now lets you lock individual or group chats in a private folder.
  • The feature is called Chat Lock and is rolling out now to all WhatsApp users.
  • Meta will add more features to Chat Lock in the future.

WhatsApp has introduced a new Chat Lock feature designed to keep your conversations more private. It allows you to hide individual chats in a folder that can only be accessed with your device’s password or biometric unlocking system, like a fingerprint. Chat Lock also automatically hides the contents of your conversation in notifications.
