Nowadays sharing picture through
WhatsApp is the easiest. You click it, you WhatsApp it. In a second your selfie
can reach your friends and family. But sometimes it left you with the awkward moment
when you mistakenly send your photos to the wrong person. If it is a normal photo,
then we do not bother much. But when it comes to ‘too personal’ photos or not
to be shared with ‘everyone’ the situation worsens. How many times it did happen
to you? For me, it is quite common.
Though WhatsApp is nicely dealing
with it by ‘Delete For Everyone’ option. Just after the picture (or message for
that matter) being sent if you realize the mistake you can delete that.
But we all agree, ‘Prevention is
better than cure. What if we get a prevention or assurance notification before
sending any picture to the correct person, it will be easier for us to ‘cross-check’
the recipient.
It is in the news that, WhatsApp will
ensure the pictures are getting sent to the correct recipient by adding the contact
name below the image caption. In its Beta update, Facebook-owned Company
WhatsApp will add a feature that will show the recipient’s name and the small picture
on the top left corner of the picture while being sent. This will allow users to
double-check the correct contact(s) they are sharing the picture with.
This option will surely reduce
the chances of sending photos to the wrong number and enhance the overall photo sharing
experience of the WhatsApp users.
It is reported that Beta users
are using Beta Version:2.19.173 or later to test this feature. Once the feature
is stable, the same will be rolled out in PlayStore soon for end users.
