With the latest encryption feature could be activated from a "New Private Conversation" option that is now part of the "Compose" menu or from the recipient's profile.
Users could participate in only one private conversation from a single device at a time and on switching the conversation to other devices, the messages they send and receive would be tied to the device they would be using at the time, the report added.
