O WhatsApp appears to have intentions of giving its users more ways to unlock the messaging app, allowing them to use methods other than biometric authentication.
So that only the legitimate owners of the cell phone have access to WhatsApp, the messaging app can be locked and only unlocked using facial recognition or a fingerprint sensor. However, if there is a malfunction in these two forms of biometric authentication, WhatsApp will allow you to use, for example, the device's access code.
BUT: WhatsApp: Tab for pinning conversations will undergo changes
The objective is to make the security methods used by WhatsApp users more flexible and, although it is not currently available to users of the messaging app, the website WABetaInfo states that the functionality is already in the beta version of the app for Android.
