The WhatsApp update berths first with iOS devices before extending to Android subsequently. WhatsApp-logo. Meta (formerly Facebook) has engineered ...

WhatsApp is finally delivering full-quality photos and videos for iOS users, although Android users are still left waiting. WhatsApp currently downgrades the quality of videos and photos to preserve bandwidth. This puts it at a competitive disadvantage to iMessage, which sends media in its original quality. WABetaInfo originally reported the news: This enhancement finally allows users to quickly share photos and videos with their original quality, without the need of following multiple steps. A few days ago, WhatsApp has released the 23.24.73 update for iOS on the App Store. Thanks to the official changelog provided by WhatsApp, we discovered that this feature is finally rolling out to everyone with the latest update! As 9to5Mac reports, users still cannot directly send photos and videos in full quality directly. Instead, when choosing something to sends, users must select Document > Choose Photo or Video, and then select the desired media file. Otherwise, a downgraded version of the media will still be sent. Although not as straight-forward as iMessage, it’s still a welcome improvement for iOS users. Hopefully, Android users won’t have long to wait before the feature makes its way to them.

According to WABetaInfo, WhatsApp’s latest software update for iOS allows you to send images as a document (just like on Gmail), meaning the original quality of the pictures is retained without you having to do any extra legwork. “Even AI Rappers are Harassed by Police” | AI UnlockedWABetaInfo explains that this feature was rolled out in beta testing around a month ago and was available to only a few users back then. Very recently, the 23.24.73 build version for WhatsApp for iOS came out, granting access to everyone on an iPhone. All you have to do now is click on the ‘+’ icon like you usually do, then go to ‘Document’ and select ‘Choose photo or video.’ There’s a 2GB size limit for the media that you can send this way. The newest WhatsApp for iOS update brings a couple of other features. Apparently, you can now start voice chats without ringing (and bothering) all the members of a large WhatsApp group. They also added some really helpful bubbles in chat, which help keep you up

Russia complained that its soldiers continue to use messaging apps in frontline areas, jeopardizing Russian operational security. That's according to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Ukrinform reports. Neither warnings nor "detailed lectures" on the dangers of using WhatsApp and SMS systems in combat areas appear to affect Russian soldiers' communication habits. And all WhatsApp and other messages that Russian military personnel send end up in Ukrainian interceptions, including documents, conversation screenshots, and media files. "The Russian military command largely blamed Russian cellphone use for a devastating Ukrainian strike on a concentration area in Makiivka, Donetsk region, on New Year's Eve 2022, and it appears as though Russian command has largely failed to remedy such issues over the course of the past year," ISW concluded. Overnight into January 1, 2023, in occupied Makiivka, an attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces killed several hundred newly mobilized soldiers from Russia's Samara region, who were stationed in the building of a vocational school. The strike also destroyed about ten pieces of enemy military equipment. Russia's Defense Ministry said that 89 Russian troops had been killed in the strike.

Meta-owned messaging app WhatsApp has introduced a new secret code set to add additional protection for chats. WhatsApp said the new feature will make chats harder to find if someone has access to your phone or you share a phone with someone else.The company says with the secret code, an individual will now be able to set unique passwords different from what they have been using to unlock their phones."This will give your locked chats an extra layer of privacy," WhatsApp said. "You'll have the option to hide the Locked Chats folder from your chatlist so that they can only be discovered by typing your secret code in the search bar."However, WhatsApp said if a user feels like the new feature does not fit their needs, they can still choose to have the locked chats appear on chatlist. "Whenever there’s a new chat which you want to lock, you can now long press to lock it rather than visiting the chat’s settings."Additionally, WhatsApp said it hopes the new feature will be more useful to the users. "We’re so happy our community has been loving Chat Lock, and hope that secret code makes it even more useful to them."The secret chat rolled out on November

WhatsApp has released a new feature that will keep your private conversations much more secure.WhatsApp update (Image: GETTY)WhatsApp is starting to push out a vital upgrade to users across the globe and it fixes a major flaw when trying to keep chats secure and private. Chat Lock was first announced earlier this year with users able to hide certain conversations behind biometric security such as Face ID or the fingerprint scanner. It's a useful function that keeps messages away from prying eyes but it does have one problem as it only works on the main device you are using. That means if you have a secondary machine, such as a laptop where you are logged into WhatsApp, Chat Locked messages can be read without needing any additional security. It's a worry for anyone relying on this service to keep things private. Luckily that annoying flaw has now been fixed thanks to an upgrade called "secret code". This allows you to add a unique set of numbers to Chat Lock making sure they stay blocked across all devices until the code is entered. "Earlier this year we rolled out Chat Lock to help people protect their more sensitive conversations. Today we’re
