WhatsApp new feature 2018
WhatsApp Now Lets You Hide Received Media From Gallery..
WhatsApp has been adding several subtle new effects, like the label on forwarded messages and the ability to record longer voice messages without holding the record icon. Now, another feature called “Media Visibility”, which was added recently, has been polished in the recent update and is useful for hiding media, but is probably not something many users know about.
Media Visibility feature can be accessed by opening a contact’s page on WhatsApp. Here, you’ll find the feature and by tapping on it a new window opens up which lets you choose between “Yes” or “No” for showing the downloaded media in the gallery. You can also set your choice to “Default” which is the setting that applies to all the chats.
The “Default” has been preset to Yes, which means that unless you select “No” for a specific contact, media will be visible in the gallery. To change the default setting, you can head over to Settings and then tap on “Chats” where you can check or uncheck the checkbox beside Media Visibility option.
