Your WhatsApp conversations may **t be as private as you believed.
iOS researcher Jonathan Zdziarski wrote in a blog post (http://www.zdziarski.com/blog/?p=6143) Thursday that he has discovered the messenger program is retaining traces of your deleted messages.
The company rolled out end-to-end encryption in April (http://qz.com/656035/whatsapps-new-encryption-wont-protect-you-unless-youre-also-doing-all-these-things/) for its users, meaning that your message stays private while traveling between devices. WhatsApp doesn't claim to have self-destructing messages, but it does claim (https://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/iphone/21117292): "Deleted messages are permanently deleted from your phone."
