How to Hide WhatsApp Chat: Earlier this year, WhatsApp introduced a new security feature to its chat app. Face ID and passcode allow users to protect their WhatsApp chats from being viewed by others. But until now, this feature was only available to iPhone users.
But both Android and iPhone users have the option to hide their chats by another method. That’s the archive chat option. Yes, you can hide your chat screen with this feature and you will have the opportunity to view those chats after a while.
This feature allows you to archive both group and individual chats. Remember that archive chat does not delete your chat or even back up your SD card.
So how are you thinking about using this feature? We are giving you step-by-step information.
