Facebook-owned WhatsApp authorities are going to make some big changes ahead. In the continuation of this, it is heard that a feature called authentication is going to come in WhatsApp. One of the features of this feature is that it does not allow you to take screenshots of WhatsApp chats. This means that the screenshot feature will be blocked inside WhatsApp.

The new authentication feature is part of their security change. This feature actually requires you to use your own fingerprint every time you log in to WhatsApp. And whenever you access your WhatsApp with fingerprint, you will not be able to take a screenshot of any conversation inside the app.

It will work a lot like the screenshot blocking feature in Instagram’s story. As a result of this feature, it takes a fingerprint to enter the main body of WhatsApp, but it is not necessary to enter the app with fingerprint to read the notification message, reply or receive the call.

It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. However, the idea is that the feature will come soon. However, many users are already commenting on this screenshot blocking feature on social media.

Just as you have the right to take screenshots of your own conversations, this feature is expected to reduce the hassle of harassing someone with WhatsApp’s embarrassing conversations.

Another thing here is that you can read conversations on PC using the web version of WhatsApp. Bypassing this screenshot blocking feature with PC is not difficult at all. So even if this feature is introduced, the question remains as to how effective it will be.

What do you think? Is this feature of WhatsApp against personal freedom? Or is it possible to prevent taking screenshots with this feature?
