WhatsApp has released a new update through the TestFlight beta program, bringing the app version up to 24.17.10.73. This update introduces a useful feature for iOS users, allowing them to easily access the privacy checkup screen from a new entry point. This feature, already available for Android users, offers greater control over privacy settings, ensuring that users can manage their information with ease.
Privacy Checkup Now Within Reach
The privacy checkup feature is designed to help users review and adjust their privacy settings. With the latest update, iOS beta users can now find a new entry point to open the privacy checkup screen. This new point is at the bottom of the privacy settings menu. This placement makes the feature highly visible and accessible. It also allows users to quickly review who can see their profile photo, last seen status, and other personal details.
By tapping on the new entry point, users get a guide through a thorough checkup. This checkup covers the most critical privacy settings. This ensures that they can configure their settings according to their choices. Such settings give the user more control over what data is visible to others.

Enhanced Control and Convenience
The key advantage of this new entry point is that it provides users with a permanent way to access the privacy checkup feature, independent of periodic reminders. This is especially useful for users who frequently add new contacts or join new groups. They can now review and adjust their privacy settings at any time, without waiting for WhatsApp to prompt them.
This improved accessibility enhances user convenience by making it easier for users to maintain their desired level of privacy. Whether users want to adjust who can see their last seen status or hide their profile photo from specific contacts, the privacy checkup feature provides a quick and easy way to manage these settings.
Rolling Out to More Users
The new entry point for the privacy checkup feature is currently available to some beta testers who have installed the latest version of WhatsApp beta for iOS from the TestFlight app. WhatsApp plans to roll out this feature to more users in the coming days. This will ensure that more people benefit from this enhanced control over their privacy settings.
