WhatsApp: Secret Feature with Big Problem for Phones

WhatsApp sync

WhatsApp has a secret function revealed for iPhone and Android operating system phones, this being one of the most important changes made to the application in recent years. The function that WhatsApp has been working on for some time is intended to allow the synchronization of information between phones, but unfortunately it also comes with a very serious problem, or at least that is what is currently implemented for the application in beta version.

WhatsApp wants to catch up with the competing platforms with this major change made for iPhone and Android, and this is because they all have the function available for some time. The problem is that synchronizing data between several devices, and connecting the same WhatsApp account to them is something that is done in a very limited way, at least in relation to what we know from Facebook Messenger, Telegram, iMessage, or other platforms messenger.

WhatsApp: Secret Feature with Big Problem for Phones

WhatsApp would not allow the manipulation of messages with synchronization between devices, and from here comes a problem that will more than likely generate enough criticism from people. Basically, if a person deletes a message from his phone/PC, it will not disappear from all the devices that the same account is connected to, just as the deletion of a chat is not synchronized by WhatsApp between all the devices that are connected to the same user account.

WhatsApp already does this with WhatsApp Web, and it's strange not to do it for this system as well, so many are wondering what the American company's plan is actually for this functionality. If WhatsApp will not implement for this system what we see now for WhatsApp Web, then it is as useless as possible for everyone, and this is because data synchronization is essential for systems of this kind.

WhatsApp has not yet officially revealed its new system, and it is not known when exactly it might do it, so we can only wait and see exactly what it intends to do.
