Note that earlier it was only possible to use the Privacy Checkup feature via a WhatsApp banner. Although the company is now releasing a new update that will let you directly access this capability without waiting for the application to show the banner.

Compared to the previous version, this is an effective way to use the Privacy Checkup feature. The company has availed this facility to a few users for the moment and will initiate a stable release in the time ahead.
