News India Live, Digital Desk: Meta New Update: Are you also troubled by the many chatting apps on your phone like WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Instagram Direct Message and Facebook Messenger? Sometimes a friend sends an important message on Telegram, while the office group remains active on Signal. In this process, many times one remains only to see the important messages and the phone’s storage also gets filled up. But now imagine what it would be like if you get the messages of all these apps only on WhatsApp? Yes, this is no longer a dream but is going to become a reality. WhatsApp has brought the biggest and most revolutionary update in its history, which will change the way we chat forever. What is this new magic of WhatsApp? WhatsApp has started providing a new feature called “Third-Party Chat Support”. If you understand in simple language, now you will be able to send and receive messages on other chatting apps like Telegram and Signal without going out of WhatsApp. This will work exactly the same way you can send email from your Gmail account to Yahoo or Outlook. For this, it will not be necessary to have WhatsApp in the other person’s phone. Why is this change being made? Behind this big change is a new law implemented in Europe, whose name is “Digital Markets Act” (DMA). Under this law, it has been made necessary for big tech companies to make their apps compatible with other apps, so that no one company has a monopoly and users get more facilities. WhatsApp has become the first major app to follow this rule. How will this feature work? This feature will not start automatically, but whether to use it or not will be completely on your choice. Folder will be visible separately: There will be no tampering with your normal WhatsApp chat. For messages coming from other apps, a separate section or folder will appear at the top of the inbox, which can be named “Third-party chats”. Completely safe: The biggest thing is that the safety of these chats has also been taken care of. These messages will also be end-to-end encrypted. This means that apart from the sender and the recipient, no third person, even WhatsApp, will be able to read them. For this, Signal’s encryption protocol has been made standard. What benefit will you get? Everything in one app: Now you will not need to download and keep 10 different messenger apps. Phone storage will be saved: Less apps means more free space in the phone. No message will be missed: You will not miss any important information since all the messages are in one place. This feature has just been launched in Europe and it is expected that soon it will be extended to the rest of the world including India. It will also be rolled out for users across countries. This is the beginning of a huge revolution in the world of chatting.
