WhatsApp could roll out a new Incognito Mode for Meta AI chats in the future, according to details shared by a feature tracker. The new functionality was spotted in development on a recent beta version, and is said to be privacy-focussed, to offer confidentiality. It is said to resemble Private Browsing on Safari and Incognito Mode on Google Chrome. The feature is still under development and cannot be accessed by beta testers.

WhatsApp's Incognito Mode for Meta AI: How it Works

WhatsApp features tracker WABetaInfo found that the instant messaging app is working on a new Incognito Mode feature for Meta AI. The feature was reportedly spotted in the WhatsApp beta for Android version 2.25.28.1. It could potentially allow users to privately have conversations with the Meta AI chatbot, while the app will not record the history of their queries to maintain confidentiality.

The feature is expected to roll out in a future update. Presently, while having a conversation with the Meta AI chatbot, it can record data for future reference. After enabling the Incognito Mode, Meta AI will be unable to use the data either for training or to personalise user experience, according to information shared by WABetaInfo. This would give users more control over their data, while also maintaining privacy.

You Can Finally Share Live Photos and Motion Photos on WhatsApp

If a user exits a chat window, with Incognito Model enabled, the queries they asked the chatbot are automatically deleted. Hence, users will be able to ask questions and research about “sensitive topics” without having to worry about their data being misused, according to WABetaInfo.

According to the screenshot shared by the feature tracker, when a user turns on Incognito Mode on WhatsApp, the app presents a prompt warning that “no personalisation, no history, and no memory” will be available for future conversations with the Meta AI chatbot. The button to turn on the same would appear in the options window, where users can currently either initiate a conversation or view previous chats.

Recently, a report highlighted that WhatsApp has also been testing Meta AI's voice chat mode feature. It was reportedly available to some beta testers to flag bugs and other issues with the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.21.21 update. It is said to offer several flexibility and personalisation options. Users will reportedly be able to initiate two-way voice chats with Meta AI by entering the chat window and tapping on the Meta icon.
