WhatsApp has brought you the feature of locking chats. After locking a chat, only you will be able to access that chat. When locked, your entire chat will go to a secure folder. The great thing is that WhatsApp Lock will also hide the content of chats from notifications. This feature has started rolling out for both Android and iOS users.

This feature creates a separate folder for locked chats, just like archived chats. You can access locked chats by clicking on that folder of chat lock. Locked chats don’t appear in the chat list. In such a situation, even if someone accesses your phone, he will have to unlock the chat before accessing your partner’s chat. Locked chat folders can only be opened with your device password or biometric authentication (fingerprint).
