Share it Works on the process of attention privacyIt will automatically block all blocked connections on the main device to guarantee the same configuration on connected terminals.

Contact blocking has been on the platform for years and provides options such as deleting or maintaining a conversation with a blocked user from the chat list and archiving it.

It is a Reversible featureSo users of the messaging platform can block a contact to receive their messages whenever they see fit.

Similarly, if they feel they are sending harmful content or 'spam', they can report it either from the settings section or from private chat, as the company mentions on its website.

Since April last year, WhatsApp has had a multi-device option that allows users to use the same account on four devices simultaneously (one main mobile and three additional ones), maintaining all the functionality of the app. End-to-end encryption.

A month later, the company offered a security function block chat, It allows you to move the conversation from the inbox to your own folder that can only be accessed by password or biometric data.

However, in October, it was learned that these were not the only available options, but a third alternative would be added with a secret code to find blocked conversations and that would be compatible with secondary devices linked to an account.

Despite these recent changes, WhatsApp has maintained blocking contacts as an individual option, meaning that if you want to block a contact across all connected devices, you have to do it individually.

The company is now working on a feature that automatically synchronizes blocked contacts across all terminals to guarantee the security of these conversations, which can only be accessed using a password or PIN.

This was verified by WABetaInfo in the latest beta of WhatsApp for Android 2.24.4.14, which found a new interface on the contact page that indicates a contact is blocked and requires a code to be entered to unlock it.

From this portal, they emphasized that this innovation not only guarantees greater privacy protection across all devices, but also simplifies the user experience by synchronizing all security measures.

Currently, this is an option under development, so it is expected to reach all users with an upcoming system update, and it is not known if this option will be extended to iOS devices.
