How to Enable End to End Encryption in WhatsApp
Filed to: Quick Guides
End-to-end encryption is turned on by default for all WhatsApp chats, except for backups. In 2021, Meta added end-to-end encryption for cloud backups to address this issue. Kindly follow the steps below to activate end-to-end encryption for cloud backups:
1
Open WhatsApp on your phone.
2
Go to Settings > Chats > Chat backup.
3
Choose the Google account where you want to store your WhatsApp backup, select a backup frequency, and enable "Include videos" if you want to backup your media files as well. You may also turn on "Back up using cellular.
4
Scroll to the bottom and you will see "End-to-end encrypted backup," tap on it and then tap "Turn on."
5
Pick a way as the password and follow the on-screen instructions to creat a password or generate your 64-digit key.
6
Now you can creat your end-to-end encrypted WhatsApp backup.
It's important to remember your password as it will be required to restore your encrypted backup in the future.
