WhatsApp to let users hide 'Last Seen' status from specific contacts
WhatsApp is also implementing more granular privacy controls for both profile photos and about sections.
San Francisco: With the latest beta release of its iOS app, the Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly adding the option to hide 'Last Seen' status from specific contacts.
After rolling out emoji reactions, the messaging app has added an option that allows users to limit specific individuals from seeing their "Last Scene" status.
According to WABetaInfo, the beta version 22.9.0.70 added a new "My Contacts Except" option under the Last Seen section of the app's privacy settings.
Adding an individual to that list also prevents users from seeing their status.
With the feature now in beta testing on both Android and iOS, it likely will not be long until it is officially available on WhatsApp, the report said.
WhatsApp is also implementing more granular privacy controls for both profile photos and about sections.
For a while now, WhatsApp has allowed users to limit who sees their status to only their contacts.
