Whatsapp indicator to show encryption and deeper integration with Facebook

[Ockie]

The second addition to WhatsApp will be the deeper integration with Facebook. The users will see a new section called “Share my account info”, which will send data to Facebook’s servers.


Javier Santos is a Spanish developer who created a Beta Updater for WhatsApp and while he was using some terminal commands, he discovered the option to share data with Facebook, but this was a hidden feature. According to him, WhatsApp 3.0 will bring a security indicator and by activating it, the application will show a lock icon to the encrypted conversations.

So I'm quite happy to see that WhatsApp has officially opened up beta testing through the Play Store. There are no Google+ communities or Google Groups to join first, you just head over to the Play Store's WhatsApp testing page and choose to become a tester. You'll then be switched over to the beta release channel and you'll start getting the yet-unreleased versions on your device automatically.
