It's no secret that Mark Zuckerberg is a pioneer when it comes to the digital world. He has already revolutionised the way we interact with technology through his immensely popular social network, Facebook. According to IOL, the new feature, which is set to be released next week, will provide users with the ability to lock conversations in the app.

This means that users will have the option to protect their conversations from being seen by anyone else, even if their phone is lost or stolen.
