Up until now, there has never really been a reason to log out of WhatsApp on your device, but this could all be about to change, and WhatsApp looks like it is preparing for the evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if you will soon be able to log into a second device without having to scan a QR code with your primary device, you may start logging in on other people\u2019s devices to check your messages when you don\u2019t have your phone with you. In that scenario, it would be very important to know that you have logged out properly once you have done so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>On WhatsApp for Desktop, a new feature that allows users to blur out certain parts of images before sending them <\/strong>looks set to add another privacy update to the app. This feature would make it easier to send photos to friends and family even if they aspects in them that you don\u2019t want to share, such as maybe a child\u2019s face, your address, or maybe the license plate on your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These two features have rolled out to beta users on both platforms but there is still no official word from WhatsApp about them. This means <strong>we will have to wait and see when they will roll out to all users<\/strong>.
