Can Netspark filter WhatsApp channels?

In WhatsApp, the Updates section includes a variety of channels to follow.


On Android devices with Uninstall Protection active, Netspark can disable WhatApp Channels according to the filter level you choose, both in WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business.
If you choose to disable WhatsApp Channels, tapping any channel on the list, including ones you are following, will be blocked.

Disabling WhatApp Channels is directly related to content settings, and can be done by adjusting settings using one of these methods:
1. Set the filter level to Moderate or strict.

2. Setting Chat/SMS category to Moderate or Strict.

3. Set WhatApp application to Moderate or Strict filter level in your Custom Filtering Rules.

If you wish WhatsApp Channels to be open, and the filter settings for Chat/SMS category is already Moderate or Strict,
you need to set WhatsApp application to Light or No filter level in your custom filtering rules.

Currently, disabling WhatApp Channels is supported only on Android devices.
