There's no way my wife or girlfriend enabling that feature. The day you enable it, that we end everything we had.

You'll simply add your fingerprint, coz lots of friends can just take a person's phone and start going thru their WhatsApp. Imagine. undecided

This feature is available in YoWhatsapp from a year or more. Official WhatsApp may come soon with Fingerprint Security. But, if you don't have too much concern about privacy, enjoy this feature with yowhatsapp and delta whatsapp https://memudownload.com/delta-gb-whatsapp-apk/ it's recommended

NaijaTechGuy:
Fingerprint security is finally coming to Whatsapp which means – no more snooping around on other people’s chats when the app isn’t open.
WhatsApp has been working round the clock to ensure you get the best out of it this year and while we expect to see lots of update in the future including the ads, the fingerprint security is almost here .



Whatsapp To Add Fingerprint Security

According to the WhatsApp beta update for Android, the company is said to be working on a new authentication feature which isn’t available globally yet as the feature is currently under development.

Once the Fingerprint feature is enabled , the app will be completely protected, so the you will need to authenticate your identity in order to open WhatsApp (from the app icon, from the notification or from external pickers).

It will protect the entire app, meaning you can’t use it to lock specific conversations for now.The company is also rumored to be working on implementing Face ID and Touch ID for iOS. There will be a section in the app where users can enable the fingerprint authentication feature.

Availability

This feature is in an alpha stage of development and it will be available in a few weeks for Android users Marshmallow and above, and iOS users.

WhatsApp Audio Picker

WhatsApp is also working to improve the audio picker that will allow users to see the list of all available audio files stored in your phone. The user will be able to play the audio before sending it, and it is also possible to select more audio files to send!
