Today we are going to teach you how to encrypt WhatsApp messages . An option that appeared without prior notice in an update of this instant messaging app.
We've always complained that WhatsApp is one of those unsafe applications. From now on we can no longer say the same, since they have added the option to encrypt our conversations. What this means is that no one can access these conversations except for you and the person you are talking to.
WhatsApp servers will not have access to these conversations either and even, which is now very up to date, the FBI will be able to access them, since everything is encrypted. Let's say that everything is under lock and key and only we have that key.
HOW TO ENCRYPT WHATSAPP MESSAGES ON IPHONE
We advise that, by default, all conversations are already encrypted. But if you do not have it encrypted, proceed as we explain below.
The first thing we have to do, and practically the only thing, is to go to the conversation that we want to make private. Once there and inside it, we must click on the name of the person we are talking to, like when we want to access the multimedia files we have shared or change the sound of a group
So, once in this menu, if we look, we see a new option. We will see this option in a paragraph, headed with the name "Encryption" . To encrypt WhatsApp messages in this conversation, we just have to click on this section.
Unencrypted conversation. The padlock IS OPEN
Now everything we talk about with this contact will be private, that is, only we have access with our WhatsApp account. Not even the servers of this instant messaging app will have access to them without our consent, obviously.
So if you want to secure your conversations so that no one has access to them, start encrypting your conversations.
