The way of communicating has evolved over the years, and today it seems that we do not know how to do it except with a mobile phone involved in most cases. Undoubtedly WhatsApp has been crucial in this aspect, since thanks to this App the connection between people regardless of the kilometers that separate them, has been possible in a simple and free way..
This has meant that the app is used not only for personal communication, but WhatsApp has also become a working tool for many users. This has meant that the number of conversations that are stored on the phones is increasing. The problem with all this is that anyone who can access our phone will have access to all this information.
That is why the App in search of greater security for user privacy, has introduced the possibility of blocking access to the App through Touch ID or Face ID according to the iPhone model you have. Next, we show you the steps you should follow if you want to activate this service..
Note
Remember that in order to enjoy this service, you must have the App updated in the App Store to version 2.19.20. To verify this, you can access from the WhatsApp app and select "Settings - Help"
