Today while I was on a video call with family using WhatsApp I noticed video effects when I used one of the signs. Then when I dug deeper to check i realised that it was a feature from iOS. If WhatsApp was end to end encrypted how are apple able to do this?

Link to the feature: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/iphaa0b5671d/ios

They don’t care if it’s encrypted or not; they have the decryption keys and data on their servers
