How To Hide IP Address in WhatsApp Calls
WhatsApp is constantly working to improve user security and privacy. One of their latest features is the ability to hide your IP address during calls, adding an extra layer of protection. This is like having a mini-VPN built into WhatsApp!
How to Activate IP Protection:
-
Update WhatsApp: Make sure you’re using the latest version of WhatsApp.
-
Open Settings:
-
Open WhatsApp.
-
Tap the three dots in the top-right corner.
-
Choose “Settings” at the bottom of the menu.
-
-
Find IP Protection:
-
Go to Settings > Privacy
-
Scroll down to the “Advanced” section.
-
Turn on the “Protect the IP address on calls” toggle.
-
Important Note:
-
When you turn on IP protection, WhatsApp will let you know that call quality might be affected. This is because calls will be routed through WhatsApp’s servers, which can sometimes lead to a slightly less clear connection. It’s a trade-off between privacy and call quality.
That’s It! You’ve now got an extra layer of security on your WhatsApp calls.
