WhatsApp has announced that it is releasing a phone number privacy feature for community members.
According to the app-tracking website, users can get the feature once they install the most recent update of WhatsApp for iOS and Android.
However, some users might be able to get the same feature by installing certain previous versions of the app. It will be rolled out to more people in the coming days.
The instant messaging app continues to strengthen the privacy of users and started testing a new feature that would add an extra layer of privacy when joining a community.
The feature would ensure that the phone numbers of members are hidden from one another.
When you join a community, you will be unable to see the numbers of other members and vice versa.
However, this feature would keep the number hidden even when someone reacts to a message.
