WhatsApp is working on a ‘login approval’ feature to protect your account from potential threats.
Accounting for more than 487 million WhatsApp users only in India, the application holds a big responsibility to keep data safe for its users. It offers regular security and feature updates to make the platform easy to use and safe.
WhatsApp is working to introduce a new ‘login approval’ feature. Like the double verification feature announced earlier, this new feature will also help prevent accounts from being stolen. The user will get in-app alerts whenever someone tries to log in to their account, adding an extra layer of security and helping prevent accounts from being stolen.
How WhatsApp login approval feature will work –
This feature will send a notification to the users whenever a new or unknown device attempts to log in to the accounts. Through the screenshot shared by the WABetainfo, we can see that in the notification alert, users will be asked to either allow or deny the login attempt. Users will also get to know the time of login attempt and the device used.
The feature is currently under development and it is not disclosed when it will be available for users.
If you are interested in trying it out early, make sure you are a part of WhatsApp’s beta channel.
