WhatsApp will soon make it easier to hide your Last Seen status from others
WhatsApp finally makes it possible to transfer your WhatsApp chat history from your iPhone to an Android phone. This is one of the most requested features that WhatsApp has been able to enable is to transfer chat history from one operating system to another when switching calls.
Now, WhatsApp is about to make it much easier to manage its last online feature, that is who can and cannot see your profile information, including your last log in.
According to WABetaInfo, WhatsApp’s new privacy tools are being developed to allow you to control who can see parts of your profile. Currently, “Last Seen,” “Profile Photo,” and “About” can be seen by everyone, your contacts, or none.

There are no customizable options here, which keep things very stable compared to other messaging apps. Those restrictions will be removed soon, as WhatsApp is currently testing the ability to exclude certain contacts from seeing your status.
With this option, you will be able to hide your “Last Seen” from being seen by a few people without completely disabling it. This option will also support profile photos and bios, providing much more privacy control than previously provided.
Disabling “Last Seen” will always be a two-way street, if you hide a group of people from your contact list, WhatsApp will hide their details.
Although the feature has been seen on iOS, it is planned to be available on all smartphones whenever it is ready for the first time. As helpful as “Last seen”, and can open up potential sources of abuse, so it’s good to see that WhatsApp makes its privacy options more flexible.
