WhatsApp will allow users to hide their online status

The messaging platform is working on a new feature that will let users hide the "online" status when they have the app open

WhatsApp is working to integrate a new feature that will allow users to hide that they are online from other contacts when they are using the application.

Currently, in the privacy options of the social network, you can choose who can see the time of the last connection, the profile picture, the information or the statuses, which have a duration of 24 hours.

However, until now it is not possible to hide the status, so that all users can see if one of their contacts is inside the application and, therefore, online.

As specialized media recently indicated the company is working to incorporate a feature that it has been developing for months to maintain privacy.

According to a screenshot of WhatsApp beta for iOS, in a future update it will be possible to limit who can see the connection status within the Last Seen Settings section.
