I've locked my whatsapp with the default security features of app. But when I'm on my homescreen and a message is received, the push notification displays the message content. Additionally, if the app is in recent tray, contents are visible.

How do I lock/hide app content from PN and Recent tray. I just want the PN to notify about "new message" instead of message content.
Please let me know if there is any such feature that would help in this scenario.

Thanks! d6ce98de-4eb6-4d4d-af97-fe3622265f63.jpg

Hey.. Can you please send me the steps to perform this operation?
I've already added the app in ssecure. But it didn't make any difference. Maybe I'm missing something.

Thanks for your reply. However, it'll only work for lock screen. I want to hide content for push notifications.

Open ssecure, select hide apps, select whatsapp. It will automatically hide whatsapp and its notifications. I am using this for past 3 months

Thanks man! I didn't understand its use earlier. Now I've added whatsapp in secure folder and removed it from the outside environment (home screen). And, it's working as I wanted it to.

Thanks again!
