New Delhi, Jan 23: Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly working on a new file sharing feature that will allow users to easily share files with people nearby in the future.

As spotted by WABetaInfo, both users will need to open the 'people nearby' section to send and receive files, ensuring secure sharing within close proximity.

"It appears that it will be needed to shake the device to generate a share request, maintaining a controlled approach to file exchanges," the report said.

The report also noted that sharing files via this feature will be end-to-end encrypted, meaning sharing files remains secure even outside of a WhatsApp chat and in an unknown network environment.
