Meta, owner of WhatsApp, has finally fixed a bug that made secret messages more visible than intended.
As TechCrunch reports, the app's “Show Once” feature didn't work as expected.
The bug affected WhatsApp one-time messages, i.e. messages and images that should only be visible once. The bug allowed secret messages to be opened multiple times, which was counterproductive to the functionality.
WhatsApp reportedly started rolling out the bug fix last week, so it should be available on your iPhone or Android phone soon if it isn't already.
Even if you're not affected, it's important to keep the app up to date to ensure all features work properly and there are no security issues.
