WhatsApp has improved its privacy feature and I welcome this gesture. I always want to hide I am online, as this status allows others to flood my WhatsApp messenger with so many messages. So I always wanted to hide my online status on WhatsApp. But how can I hide my last seen status? Thanks to the developers of this popular chat client, now I can disable WhatsApp Last Seen. Last Seen, as the name suggests, reveals the last time when you logged into your WhatsApp; from this time, your contacts or anybody who has got your WhatsApp number can get to know when you are or were on the messenger. Here we have discussed two methods to hide Last Seen in WhatsApp on your iPhone and Android devices.
When you turn off your WhatsApp Last Seen time, you can choose one of the three options: Nobody, Contacts, and Everyone. When you select ‘Everyone’, persons who are not your contact can also view your Last Seen status.
