WhatsApp released new features for the safety of users
Last year, WhatsApp has added many new features to the app for the safety of users, which include chat lock, email address link, passkey etc. If you have not yet linked your email ID with your WhatsApp account, then definitely link it. By doing this you will be able to login to your account through email also. Apart from this, do not forget to set the Passkey also. It allows you to verify the account through fingerprint which increases the security of the account.
