The company is working on a technical solution that ensures third-party chats maintain the same level of encryption and user privacy as existing WhatsApp and Messenger communications. Meta has introduced new notifications that will inform users about third-party chats and will notify them each time a new app becomes compatible with WhatsApp or Messenger. This feature is designed to keep users aware and in control of their interactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Customization and User Control<\/strong><br>WhatsApp and Messenger users will have the flexibility to manage how they interact with third-party apps. Meta plans to introduce options for either combined or separate inboxes. Users can choose to view all their messages, including those from third-party services, in a single combined inbox, or they can opt for a separate folder where only third-party messages will appear. This provides users with greater control over their inbox organization, enhancing the overall user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to inbox customization, users will have the power to select which third-party apps they want to receive messages from, offering an extra layer of personalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>New Features and Delayed Call Integration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meta is also introducing \u201cRich Messaging Features\u201d like reactions, direct replies, typing indicators, and read receipts to support third-party chats. Group chat functionality will also extend to include participants from other apps by 2025. However, voice and video calls with third-party apps will be delayed until 2027, as Meta focuses on developing secure integration for these features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.india.com\/technology\/whatsapp-to-launch-cross-platform-messaging-support-soon-know-how-it-works-6757633\/\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In compliance with the European Union\u2019s Digital Markets Act (DMA), Meta has announced that its popular messaging platforms, WhatsApp and Messenger, will support interoperability with third-party messaging services by 2027.
