Now you can lock WhatsApp on laptop in this way, no one will be able to access personal chat

WhatsApp is useful for both personal and professional communication. A lot of office messages come through WhatsApp, making it challenging to constantly check and read them on your phone. To manage this, most of us log in to WhatsApp on our laptops as well. However, leaving WhatsApp open on your laptop can expose your messages to others when you step away from your desk.

While many people believe that locking their laptop screen will protect their messages when they go out, this is not always the case - someone can still access or read your messages. If this worries you, WhatsApp's new "App Lock" feature may provide a solution. Here's how you can secure WhatsApp on your laptop using this feature.
