WhatsApp continues to update and last, only in chronological order, comes the news regarding the messages forwarded. For some time the company has been working to understand how to improve the situation of "fake news", that is, messages that are forwarded by many users and that become viral. Many of these messages hide not only false news but are often also carriers of malware or viruses that can infect users' smartphones. Here in the last update in the distribution phase for Beta users from now on you will be able to see the number of messages forwarded.
WhatsApp: you can see the number of forwarders
Here is the latest news in terms of messages just forwards. In the update the display of the messages forwarded will be modified and will now be counted in a specific section. Clearly the reference to the number is how many messages have actually been forwarded by the user.
But that's not all because in this case the novelty also concerns a new feature under development, always concerning the messages sent. Here is that at the fourth message sent a specific description will be mentioned in which the sender will be notified that he is "forwarding" the same message frequently. As said, the intention is to try to reduce the "fake news" or the fake news that could lead to malevolent situations especially for those who are unaware of it.
The two new features are being rolled out for users who use the Beta version of the most famous messaging application in the world. We do not know if they will also be implemented for everyone. In fact so far what was seen in the Beta versions for message forwarding has been implemented and therefore there is the possibility that it also happens for this feature.
