WhatsApp has released a new update for the desktop client via the official beta channel, bringing the version to 2.2217.2.
What's new in this version? WhatsApp is working on a new security page for a future WhatsApp Desktop beta version.
Following the recent release of a new footer informing customers about end-to-end encryption and a revamped security page in the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.22.11.10 upgrade, we have discovered some similar elements in the newest beta edition of WhatsApp Desktop beta:
Even though the feature is still under development, we can show you the revised security page, which will be accessible in a future app update and is remarkably similar to the one introduced on WhatsApp beta for Android. What's the distinction? End-to-end encryption protects text and voice messages, audio and video chats, photographs, videos, and documents, location sharing, and status updates, according to the new security website.
We don't know when WhatsApp plans to distribute the updated security page to beta testers, but when it does, the new footer (seen in the WhatsApp Desktop beta 2.2206.1 upgrade) will also be accessible. We want to provide another changelog regarding a future release of the app on this website when the redesigned security page and the new footer are rolled out to beta users.
