Some new privacy features have been added to WhatsApp , the world’s most popular instant messaging app. With these new features added, the user experience has been slightly improved. The options available for profile photo, last seen and WhatsApp statuses will now allow you to more easily select the users you want to hide your information from.
The last seen time, statuses and profile photo on WhatsApp could be managed with 3 options until today. These options were “Everyone”, “My Contacts” and “Nobody”. Now, the option ” My Contacts Except… ” has been added to them. This option allows you to hide your personal information and shares from that person without having to delete a user’s number from your phone.
This is what WhatsApp’s new privacy options look like
As you can see in the images we shared above; You will now be able to hide some of your information on WhatsApp from the people you want in your contacts . Moreover, you do not need to do much to do this. After opening WhatsApp, tap Settings , then Account, then Privacy. Then tap “My Contacts Except…” and select the contacts you want to hide your information from. Here everything is so simple…
WhatsApp’s new privacy options are now available to all users. However, if your app is out of date, you may not be able to access these features. If you can’t view the options, make sure the app is up to date .
