AgenciesWhatsApp is gearing up to launch a new feature that allows users to report status updates on desktop beta. The company is looking forward to upscale the safety level of its core working infrastructure with this latest offering. It is likely to enhance the messaging experience for the global WhatsApp community.
According to the reports, the new option will render the users a fair opportunity to report status updates violating the Terms of Service. WhatsApp users can file a report against a suspicious status within a new menu in the status section. The company’s moderation team will receive the said complaint. Post this, the moderation team will analyze the status to confirm the violation, if any.
The new reporting feature will not hamper the chain of end-to-end encryption. WhatsApp relies on encryption to ensure that nobody, not even Meta, can access users’ private chats or calls. The company wishes to stand by its privacy protocol but also aspires to offer a reporting feature to users where they can reach out to the team in their time of need. The new status update reporting feature will help increase the WhatsApp community's security.
The highly-anticipated reporting option is currently in its development stage. It will be launched in a new update of WhatsApp desktop beta soon. Last month, WhatsApp introduced a new feature for beta testing that allowed users to view profile pictures within group conversations on a desktop.
