WhatsApp Beta 2.22.11.10: let’s find out what’s new

The novelty of the latest update of WhatsApp Beta, which reaches version 2.22.11.10, consists in the release to a greater number of beta testers of the new footers containing the indicators for end-to-end encryption, already spotted in an advanced state at the internal version of the previous version 2.22.10.14, released to beta testers only a few days ago.

The new indicators for end-to-end encryption have been inserted in the lower part (footer) of the screens relating to the chat history, the statuses, the call log and the connected devices; the indicator simply reads ” Your personal messages are end-to-end encrypted “. Thanks to the specialized portal WaBetaInfo we can show you how the new indicators appear and also what happens by tapping on the link.

The link leads to a screen that reminds users how their statuses, shared locations, photos, videos and documents, audio and video calls and their chats are private and not accessible even to the WhatsApp team, which is very sensitive to issues of security and privacy of its users.

This page can also be reached from the WhatsApp settings, following the path “Settings> Account> Security”. The described functionality is being gradually released to all beta testers who install WhatsApp Beta version 2.22.11.10; the update would also seem to be the automatic pass to enable you to be able to add reactions to text messages, despite the fact that the functionality is being gradually released for everyone (but very slowly).

How to download the latest beta version of the app

It is possible to download the latest version of WhatsApp Beta for smartphones based on the Google Android operating system, through the Google Play Store, by subscribing to the Beta Program of the app (you can find the page dedicated to the program by following this link).

If the Beta Program is temporarily full, it would still be possible to test the latest versions of WhatsApp Beta in preview, proceeding with the manual installation of the related APK files, which can be downloaded from the APK Mirror portal (whose dedicated page can be reached by following this link).
