With the latest beta of its iOS app, WhatsApp has added an option that allows users to limit certain people’s “Last Seen” statuses from seeing, according to the expert WhatsApp leak site. WABetaInfo.
If you’re not familiar with this part of WhatsApp, it’s the feature that tells you when someone last checked the app, and it’s a way to find out if someone has seen your message, even with the blue checkmark disabled. . . .
It’s worth noting that for a while, WhatsApp only allowed you to limit who can see your status with options like your contacts.
You could also disable the feature entirely, but you couldn’t prevent certain people from seeing this information.
“Except my contacts…”
However, WhatsApp iOS beta version 22.9.0.70 adds a new “My contacts except…” option in the Last Seen section of the app’s privacy settings.
In accordance with WABetaInfoadding a contact to that list also prevents them from seeing your status.
The outlet says that WhatsApp has implemented more granular privacy controls for both profile photos and sections.
With the feature currently in beta testing on both Android and iOS, it probably won’t be long before it becomes officially available on WhatsApp.
