Many are the times that we share our phones with friends and family. When we do this, we risk our private chats on our social media platforms being read. Since most of us use WhatsApp, we usually risk our private and group chats being read by snoopy people.

To avoid people from snooping on your private and group chats on WhatsApp, you can use third-party locker apps that will help you to hide particular WhatsApp chats. Once you hide particular WhatsApp chats using one of the apps, the chats will only be accessed when you type in a passcode.
