Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared the news, highlighting the new password functionality. Users can now hide locked chats, accessible only with the secret code, providing an extra layer of security.
"Specifically, after configuring a secret code, the entry point to view locked chats will no longer appear in the chat list. Instead, users can access these chats by entering the secret code into the search bar within the Chats tab," the report noted.
