The courier service Whatsapp will allow a new feature that can complicate some users. This is a change in privacy parameters when receiving videos uploaded by other contacts.
According to the website WABetaInfo, the messaging service will allow you to watch videos without having to enter Whatsapp, that is, the screen will appear on the user's screen when the message arrives.
✅ WhatsApp is launching the ability to view videos directly in push notification for any iOS beta users who have version 2.18.102.5 installed!
It will be available soon for users of the App Store.

Although WhatsApp tries to optimize the use of the service by enabling this tool, the option may complicate some users who prefer to keep the privacy of their conversations. For example, in the case of a person receive a video of sexual content, this image will appear on the screen of your smartphone.

But for the peace of many, this new option could be turned off, so notifications would not be visible on the phone screen.
Whatsapp I would be enabling this option gradually among iOS users and then extending the tool on Android and on other systems. Some people have already been able to review the app changes on their phones.
Apparently As mentioned: My wife can use the new function, a friend's wife can not. Both use the App Store version, never used a beta version. In the video: My wife's iPhone, I hope you want to say this feature (Watch the video in the notification) pic.twitter.com/mLukaM47pn
