However, it is important to keep in mind that there are a series of tricks in WhatsApp that are actually a hoax and are the following:
Review another contact’s chats without accessing your account
Several users have found in social networks and forums a series of supposed methods that make it possible to review and have a backup copy of all the conversations that a contact has through the Internet. app. Usually, these ‘hacks’ indicate that through the installation of a special application it will be possible to spy on all the chats of a person and also to know at what times he is most active.
Remove the message “for everyone”, modifying the time
Currently, WhatsApp offers a time limit of approximately one hour to permanently delete a message that was published in an individual or group conversation. But, according to some forums, there is a means to alter this rule and thus be able to delete any message at the time the user decides.
Supposedly, the key lies in changing the phone’s time, because in this way the instant messaging application will not notice the passage of time and therefore the block to delete messages sent to a chat would never be generated.
It must be clarified that this trick is completely false, because changing the time on the cell phone clock does not affect the recording of the times a message is posted in a conversation.
