The feature we’re talking about is known as Invisible Ink, and it allows iPhone users to send an iMessage with the text scribbled out on the screen so that no one else except for you and the recipient can read it. The message will only appear on the screen when you tap and hold it down.  

To anyone else trying to look over your shoulder, it will just look like a blank message. This is also a great trick to use if you want to send any funny jokes or surprises to your friends, or you can use it to discuss movie and TV spoilers in your group chats without spoiling anything for those in the chat who haven’t watched yet. However, this special feature only works in iMessage and cannot be used in any other messaging platform, such as WhatsApp.
