Feature Requestr
Hello;
Would be great to have WhatsApp in the AppAware section do you have any plans on adding this in the near future?

Jennifer Kendall Sorry this one took me a bit of digging, but I found some information for you!
Our security team has looked into blocking WhatsApp in the past, but due to how the app is built, it encrypts and routes traffic in a way that bypasses any dns-based blocks.
At most blocks at the dns-layer could potentially block users from downloading the app, but not from actually using it. And these blocks are even temporary: while initially effective, at some point it will trigger whatever their bypass and WhatsApp is accessible again.
If you think of other features you'd like to see, feel free to submit a feature request through your DNSFilter dashboard or directly in Canny!
