WhatsApp Web to get Chat Lock feature with secret codes: Details here

WhatsApp Web is reportedly working on a new feature for the web version of the popular messaging app that will allow users to lock and hide specific chats behind a secret code. According to WABetaInfo, a website that tracks WhatsApp features, the Chat Lock feature with secret codes is currently in development and will be rolled out soon on WhatsApp Web. Unlike the existing Chat Lock feature on WhatsApp for iOS and Android, which requires biometric authentication, the secret code feature will work on any device that supports WhatsApp Web. WhatsApp for iOS and Android users will also have the option to disable the secret code feature and use the biometric Chat Lock feature instead.
