If you want to hide your online status on WhatsApp and keep your activity private, you can follow these steps:
- Open WhatsApp: Launch the WhatsApp application on your mobile device.
- Go to Settings: Tap on the three-dot menu icon located in the top-right corner of the screen. From the dropdown menu, select “Settings.”
- Navigate to Account: In the Settings menu, choose the “Account” option.
- Select Privacy: Within the Account settings, tap on “Privacy.”
- Manage Last Seen: Under the Privacy settings, locate the “Last Seen” option and tap on it.
- Customize Visibility: WhatsApp offers three options to choose from:a. Everyone: If you select this option, anyone who has your phone number can see your online status.
b. My Contacts: This option restricts your online status visibility to your contacts only.
c. Nobody: By selecting this option, your online status will be hidden from all WhatsApp users, including your contacts.
- Choose Your Preference: Select the option that suits your privacy preferences. If you want to hide your online status, choose “Nobody.”
After following these steps, your online status will no longer be visible to other WhatsApp users. It’s important to note that by hiding your online status, you won’t be able to see the online status of other contacts as well. Keep in mind that even though your online status is hidden, other users may still be able to see other indications of your activity on WhatsApp, such as when you were last seen or when you’re typing a message.
