Cons of switching Send Uncompressed Media Another useful feature is “send without sound”.

While the latest photo is the profile picture your contacts will see, they can swipe to see the rest of your pictures.

Delete Sender’s Message To lock a chat go to Settings->Privacy and Security->Passcode Lock and enable it. Once you create a passcode and enable it, you will be able to lock and unlock your chats by tapping on the lock icon at the top right of the app. To upload new profile images, open Settings. On Android, tap on the camera icon at the top-right. On iPhone, tap the Edit button and choose Set New Photo or Video.
