WhatsApp update: THESE users can share documents with caption - Check details

WhatsApp update: The Meta-owned messaging platform WhatsApp has started testing  a new feature for Android users that would help users to share documents with a caption. This new feature is expected to be rolled out soon for all users. 

WABetaInfo, a website that tracks WhatsApp, tested the feature by selecting a document within the chat share sheet and a caption bar shows up. "Thanks to the caption bar, we are able to attach a caption to the document before sharing it with the recipient," said WABetaInfo in a report.

When you share a document with a caption, it is easier for you to find it later thanks to the caption by entering it within the search text field. This feature has been released to some beta testers, the report said.

Meanwhile, WhatsApp is also reportedly releasing screenshot blocking for view once images and videos to some beta testers. The ability is available for some beta testers that install the latest beta from the Play Store.

As per WaBetaInfo report, the Meta-owned platform is releasing a new version of view once images and videos in order to prevent people from taking a screenshot, or a screen recording, to them and it is available for some beta testers that install the latest beta from the Play Store.

The attempt to record the screen when opening a view once image or video is also blocked by default. You cannot forward, export, or save, view once images and videos as always

The report mentioned that some beta testers are no longer able to take a screenshot to view once images, and screen recordings to view once videos.  If the feature is enabled for your WhatsApp account, when someone takes a screenshot, it is never notified to the recipient but the attempt to take a screenshot is immediately blocked for added privacy.
