WhatsApp is constantly improving its services for Android and iOS users. The latest update includes some useful features for users, which we found to be truly amazing. The developers have now begun to distribute the new beta update for WhatsApp, which is currently available for Android users.
WhatsApp has received a new beta update 2.22.22.3, which you can download and test on your Android device. The most recent beta update to this app includes a new privacy feature that allows users to block screenshots in certain scenarios.
WhatsApp Beta version 2.22.22.3 for Android:
Mark Zuckerberg announced in the summer that some new privacy-related features would be introduced soon, one of which was screenshot blocking.
With the latest beta version, this function has been made available to some testers, for which a new system for displaying images and videos that disappear (i.e. that can only be seen once) is introduced, capable of preventing people from taking a screenshot or video recording of the screen is introduced.

These screenshots show a black screen, which is exactly what users will see if they try to take a screenshot or record a screen video of images and videos shared by others using the one-time view option.
However, keep in mind that, despite this security feature, users can still take screenshots of conversations even if they contain some messages that disappear (this is because the new functionality is limited to viewing images and videos) and that disappearing photos and videos can always be “captured” through another device’s camera.
Basically, the advice is to use the option to send photos and videos with a single view with great care, as any sensitive and/or confidential content could be equally at risk. At the moment there is no information on when this new feature will be made available to all users.
How to download the new beta version of the app:
If you want to try the latest version of WhatsApp Beta for smartphones based on the Google mobile operating system, you have the possibility to do it through the Google Play Store, by subscribing to the beta testing channel (you can find the page dedicated to this program by following this link).
Those who have not managed to sign up for the beta program but would like to try this version of the messaging app in a preview can do so by manually installing the relative APK file, which can be downloaded from APK Mirror (find the dedicated page by following this link).

Apple released the iPhone 14 series earlier this month, which includes the iOS 16 operating system. In addition, Samsung has made the One UI 5.0 operating system compatible with Android 13 available to eligible devices. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max are now available with new lock screen customization and the Dynamic Island feature. On the other hand, One UI 5.0 beta 3 includes lock screen customization for Galaxy S22 series users.
Meanwhile, the Smart Island feature has been made available to Android users via third-party applications such as dynamicSpot, and it is fully functional on Android devices. The lock screen customization, on the other hand, has arrived for Galaxy S22 users with the One UI 5.0 beta update and is very similar to the iOS 16 lock screen customization.
According to Twitter tipster TechDroider, the custom Samsung lock screen process in the One UI 5 Beta 3 system is similar to Apple’s iOS 16. Samsung currently offers five different clock styles, whereas Apple offers eight. The user can also change the color of the clock in both operating systems.

We discovered that when it comes to adding new wallpapers, both operating systems offer background collections that are highlighted in a similar manner. While Apple provides both built-in and third-party widgets, Samsung currently only provides widget icons for notifications.
Following the release of the iPhone 14/Pro series, Samsung mocked Apple for being out of touch with the concept of folding screens, large-pixel cameras, and so on.
