In the ever-changing view of the world of social media and instant messaging, privacy is not only a feature, but seemingly a must-have.
A new privacy menu for WhatsApp’s ephemeral content feature, Status, makes it easier for users to understand and control who can see their content.
Picture composing a Status, then deciding you want a subset of your audience to see it.
Now, through the updated version, WhatsApp gives users the choice to send to *All contacts* or just *Selected* right before they send.
The last-minute reminder to review privacy settings serves as a final checkpoint before publishing.
So far, this feature has been available only to some beta testers.
WhatsApp is also tinkering with the algorithm to highlight the Status interactions of people you’re more likely to interact with.
This latest update shows how WhatsApp will always stick to their commitment to the privacy of its users.
This evolution shows how WhatsApp’s design philosophy has grown to include more self-determined controls and algorithmic adaptations.
