Despite the fact that WhatsApp is the most famous instant messaging application in the world, most users are unaware of all the functions it has. One of them, which is available on Android and iPhone, allows you to lock your chats with a fingerprint. Do you want to know how?

According to the La República portal, unlike other similar tricks that ask you to install apps created by third parties, here you only need to follow certain steps. In this way, your account will be protected and no stranger will be able to check your messages without permission. What should you do?

1. First you must enter the App Store or Play Store and download the latest version of WhatsApp.

2. Once updated, YoEnter the instant messaging application and press the three dots icon (located in the upper right corner).

3. A list of options will be displayed. You will have to choose settings.

4. Enter account and then privacy.

5. There you will see the option Fingerprint lock that is locked by default.

6. Turn it on and choose how quickly you want the app to crash.

You will have three options. The first (immediately) blocks WhatsApp as soon as you minimize the messaging application, that is, you will have to put your fingerprint almost at all times, which can be annoying.

Finally, “after one minute” or “after 30 minutes” will block the app after 60 seconds or half an hour of inactivity, respectively. Both are the best options, since you will not have to authenticate yourself every time.

What if your cell phone doesn’t have a fingerprint?

In the event that your smartphone does not have this feature, all you have to do is download an application in the Play Store that allows you to block WhatsApp chats with a password. There are several examples like AppLock, Chat Look for WhatsApp, AppLocker, etc.
