Welcome Reader. Popular social network giant owned by Mark Zuckerberg being WhatsApp has released an app update which will stop photo stranger’s or even your close friends from stealing your whatsapp profile pictures.

Before now, you could click on a whatsapp profile picture and choose to copy, save or export the file without the owner of the profile's consent. But things have changed for the better with an update that shows that the WhatsApp company privacy ploicy is more strict and has also removed the feature that allows you to save someone else’s profile pictures.

Aside from screen-shoting munching someone’s profile pic, you’ll no longer be able to save a profile image on whatsapp.

Once you update your WhatsApp to the latest version 2.19.60.26 on beta mode, you will see that profile images or pictures can't be saved again but this won't stop you from saving your whatsapp group image or icons.

So what is your say on it issue??

Try taking a screen shot of your GTB or First bank app showing your transactions or balance. I use both banks, you will find out you can't.

Pls how do you update your gbwhatsapp whenever it expires?
If I'm not mistaken, gbwhatsapp is usually installed as AKP, that is its not on google playstore.

I once had it and enjoyed it, but whenever it expires, I try to update it, I see all sorts of Arabic language. Even when I translate, I still can't update it.

You Sabi jare. Who get time for unnecessary restriction. Devs making those restriction doesn't know that a hacker with malicious intent can always get past them. Only users suffer the presence of these restriction or the risk of the absence of same restrictions.

Try having a screenshot of your Mail from your Yahoo app first.

That's the same technology WhatsApp is planning of implementing...
