WhatsApp Web to Soon Get Username Search Feature Without Sharing Phone Number to Increase Privacy

WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new feature in which users will get more privacy than before. This feature will provide more privacy to the users in WhatsApp Web. After its arrival, users will not need to provide their phone number to connect on WhatsApp Web. Rather, users will be able to find other users by username only. Earlier there was news that this feature will be brought for Android users. But now it has come to light that it will be brought in the web version as well.

About this upcoming feature of WhatsApp WABetaInfo has revealed that the web client will now be able to connect to the user only through the username. Till now, the user has to tell his phone number to the other user to connect on the web version. But after the arrival of the new feature, users will be able to connect with other users without forcing them to tell their number. That is, if you do not want to tell your phone number to anyone, then you can connect on the messaging platform without that.

Username based search will not only increase privacy, but communication will also become more secure. And the user will not have to give personal details. The tracking platform has also shared a screenshot of this developing feature. Talking about other updates, WhatsApp is also going to add a feature to be used during video calling.

A recent report has revealed that WhatsApp plans to bring a feature through which video and music audio can be shared during a video call. However, this will happen only when the other user shares his screen. This will benefit those who want to be entertained by sharing multimedia content for a while during a long discussion. The ability to share video and music audio in real time during screen-sharing is expected to increase interaction on the platform.
