As the name suggests, WhatsApp’s latest feature for locked chats allows users to conceal their conversations behind a secret code. It has also been stated that the platform is developing a number of additional features. According to reports, WhatsApp is bringing back the ability to “View Once” images and videos on both the desktop and web versions. Additionally, a “search by username” function like to Telegram’s is apparently in the works. According to a recent report, users may soon be able to broadcast their WhatsApp status on Instagram, a website owned by Meta.

The social media network is developing an optional feature that would let users upload their WhatsApp status updates straight to Instagram, according to a recent post from WhatsApp feature tracker WABetaInfo. On the Google Play Store, it was observed on the WhatsApp beta for the Android 2.23.25.20 version. Users of the platform can currently share their WhatsApp statuses on Facebook. It’s also expected that the rumored functionality would be similar.

The options to share status updates on Facebook and Instagram are grouped together under the Status Privacy menu, according to a screenshot shared by WABetaInfo. Users will be able to enable or disable this feature, just like they can with the share to Facebook option.

Although it did not specify a specific date, the article stated that WhatsApp plans to make this feature available to all users in the future.

According to the article, users would have the same discretion over who can see their shared WhatsApp statuses as they would with regular Instagram stories. When it launches, this functionality should facilitate information sharing and enhance the consistency and dependability of content sharing across platforms.

It is also anticipated that the function will be effective and time-saving. We might not have to go to the trouble of screengrab a certain status and post it individually on Instagram thanks to this connection. It is also expected to help users who may now create separate WhatsApp Statuses and Instagram Stories for the same content by enabling them to share it across platforms in a single tap.
