These useful features are hidden in WhatsApp, 90% people do not know!

Almost every smartphone user uses WhatsApp today. But did you know that WhatsApp has many features that many people don't use on a daily basis? Some enhance your privacy, some help you manage your chats better, and some can save you time.

Let us know about some amazing features of WhatsApp, which you might not have heard about before.

Start a WhatsApp chat without saving the number

If you want to message someone on WhatsApp whose number you don't want to save forever, you don't need to add the number to your contact list first. You can start a chat directly using WhatsApp's supported chat-starting options.

 Use Disappearing Messages

WhatsApp has a Disappearing Messages option. Using this feature in a chat can make new messages automatically disappear after a selected period of time.

This feature can be useful for conversations that you don't want to keep in the chat history forever.

Lock Chat

If you have personal or private conversations on your phone, WhatsApp's Chat Lock feature can be useful. This allows selected chats to be placed in a separate locked section and requires device authentication to open.

Have more control over your online activity

Through privacy settings in WhatsApp, you can control who can see some of your account information like Last Seen and Online status.

If you want to keep your online activity more private, be sure to check your WhatsApp privacy settings.

Change your Status privacy settings

It's not necessary to show your Status to every WhatsApp contact. WhatsApp's Status privacy controls allow you to control who can see your Status.

Edit a message sent by mistake

Sometimes, spelling or text errors appear after sending a message. WhatsApp supports editing messages after sending, allowing you to correct minor errors.
