Do you want your WhatsApp chats to be invisible to anyone without your permission? And that too without archiving them? If yes, then you are not alone. WhatsApp may be the most popular messaging app, but sometimes we need settings that are not directly visible. we will talk about how to hide WhatsApp chats without archiving them – in a very discreet way.
What is WhatsApp Archive
The archive feature is used to remove chats from the home screen. But the problem is that anyone can see those chats by opening the archive section. That is, the chat remains hidden, but not completely. So if you want to hide your private conversation from anyone & want it not to be visible in any way, then you have to adopt another method.
How to hide WhatsApp chats without archiving them
Step 1: Use the WhatsApp lock feature
- WhatsApp now allows you to lock chats. To do this:
- Open the chat you want to hide.
- Tap on the chat name at the top.
- Scroll down and select the “Chat Lock” option.
- Now enter your phone’s password or scan your fingerprint.
- The chat is now locked.
Step 2: How to access locked chats
You can access locked chats from WhatsApp’s home screen like this:
- Open WhatsApp
- Swipe down on the chat screen
- The “Locked Chats” section will appear
- Open with password/fingerprint
Is this method safe
Absolutely! Because only the password set in your phone or biometric access works to open locked chats. That means even if someone is using your phone, he cannot open the chats.
