Fingerprint security is the big thing on the Android apps. This feature is an additional means of security to avoid unathorized access to your files and data.
Fingerprint security has finally come to Whatsapp after being available on some Nigerian Banks mobile app like Diamond Bank. When enabled, this feature will stop people from spying your WhatsApp chats anytime you give them your phone.
If you enable this feature on your WhatsApp, the app will prompt for Fingerprint authentication before you can have access to your chats. It will look like this image below.
You will also get a prompt for fingerprint authentication whenever you launch the app from its icon, from the notification or from external pickers.
According to source; Whatsapp is said to be working on a new authentication feature which is now available globally yet as the feature is currently under development.
For now, you can't protect specific chats. Meaning this feature will only protect the entire app (WhatsApp). When the feature is available, there will be a section in the app (located in Settings>Account>Privacy) where users can enable the fingerprint authentication feature.
