Smart use of smartphone for better security with WhatsApp

Posted on: 10/Feb/2015 9:32:20 AM
According to recent announcements by WhatsApp, there are over 700 million monthly active users who share 30 billion messages a month. This is certainly a huge count to share personal messages for communication. Despite this enormous amount, WhatsApp maintains each of the user chats secured.

Take a look at the following quick tips for security with WhatsApp chats:
  • The best way to secure your WhatsApp conversations is to protect it with PIN. Though WhatsApp doesn’t offer such functions, you can download such apps from other third parties from the Playstore. Though it may seem to annoy your usage, nobody else will come to know about your personal chats if at all your phone gets stolen.
  • It’s probable that you share some images in person with someone. In such a case, ensure to keep your photos out of reach from general photo rolls.
  • Make your profile picture available only to your contact list. Any stranger to whom you replied will get access to your profile picture if it is kept as public. Make it available only to your contacts so that it remains personal and visible only to the ones you know, and not to any stranger.
  • In case of loss of your phone, make sure to get a replacement for your SIM card and access your WhatsApp from any other smartphone. With this, you can be sure that your account is not being misused by the thief.
