In January 2021, WhatsApp announced a very significant change to its privacy policy, followed by a major update. The update was effective in February 2021 and the application of the new confidentiality policy will be effective in May 2021. Today, we know that the update mainly affects exchanges between companies. Either way, this news has worried users.
Concretely, with this new privacy policy, it would become possible to share data with Facebook if you use WhatsApp Business. In addition, information regarding the use of data as well as its sharing would now be more transparent.

In this regard, many users did not wait long to express their dissatisfaction.
Just to look good, WhatsApp has started to roll out new functions on a regular basis. One way like any other to restore its brand image.
WhatsApp in full operation seduction
Recently, we learned that WhatsApp engineers were working on a brand new function to send ephemeral images, and therefore images capable of self-destruction after a period specified by the user.
But not all of WhatsApp’s new features are unfortunately so flashy and some of them are more discreet.
This is the case with this function which should however interest many people.
This function aims to allow us to remove the sound from videos shared on WhatsApp before they are sent.
You know, WhatsApp isn’t just about texts. The application also allows you to send images or video clips. In some cases, however, we may not want to leave the sound of our sequences.
How to mute a WhatsApp video
Until now, it was necessary to go through third-party solutions to remove this track or make it inaudible. Fortunately, WhatsApp is now able to manage it natively. However, for the moment, only the Android version of the application offers it. Version that you will of course have to update.
Once it’s done, open a chat and record a video or select one from your image gallery. Before sending the video, edit it by tapping on the speaker icon at the top left to remove the sound and voila!
Convenient, isn’t it? Certainly, but unfortunately, it is also reported that shortly, the application will stop working on version 9 of iOS. This means that those who use iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and 3, iPad mini 1, and iPod Touch 5G will soon be deprived of messaging service.
