The developers of the instant messaging application "WhatsApp" have announced the launch of a useful addition to the private chat feature. The app has introduced a completely new tool that hides chats you don’t want anyone to know about by completely concealing them behind a secret code. If you don’t want to hide certain conversations, you can leave them in the public chat list. To move a new conversation to the hidden category, simply press and hold it; there's no need to access the chat settings anymore.
It is worth noting that the app previously announced it would cease operations on devices running "Android" with operating system version 4.1 as of October 24th. According to the company's website, the instant messaging app will not support work on a list of 16 devices, ranging from tablets to smartphones, starting from this date. The company's statement indicated that "the app will stop working on 'Android' devices running OS version 4.1 and newer."
