Facebook Messenger will now be able to detect and warn users when chats appear to be scams, and it will also be possible to ask Meta’s AI tool to review any suspicious chats.
WhatsApp will now display a new warning that users should only share their screen with people they trust during video calls.
In addition, Facebook, Messenger, and WhatsApp now all support passkeys—learn more about why passkeys are better than passwords—and it will also be possible to get a quick overview of the security settings in Facebook and Instagram. Meanwhile, WhatsApp will now have a new privacy settings guide.
