How To Keep Certain Contacts from Seeing Your Status

How To Keep Certain Contacts from Seeing Your Status

One of the most popular social media sites is WhatsApp. We do a lot on WhatsApp, from texting to using the status feature to share important occasions. But occasionally, someone you don’t want to know your status could see it. For instance, a family member or other random contact might examine something you shared that is personal. You may easily hide your private status from anyone you don’t want to see it. Here’s how to do that.

Like a Pro, Hide Your Status!

Although hiding your status is already an option, did you know that you can also hide it from particular contacts? To hide your WhatsApp status from specific people, take the actions listed below:

  • Navigate to the Status tab after opening WhatsApp.
  • Tap the three dots in the corner once you’re on the Status tab.
  • The Privacy settings will be visible to you. Select the Status privacy option by clicking.
  • Select “My contacts except” by tapping on it.
  • Choose which contacts you wish to keep your status a secret from now.
  • Pro Tip: Use the search function to discover a contact quickly if you’re having problems finding them.
  • To verify your modifications after choosing the contacts, hit the checkmark button. Keep in mind that if you don’t click the checkmark, your changes won’t be stored.
  • The chosen individuals are now unable to see your status!

Pro Tip: Tell Just a Select Few People About Your Status

You can share your status with only a select few people, just as you can hide it from certain individuals. You can post a status with your closest friends only, for instance, if you’re throwing a party and only want to invite them. Here’s how:

  • Navigate to the Status tab after opening WhatsApp.
  • Select “Status privacy.”
  • The “Only share with” option should be selected.
  • Select the contacts with whom you wish to update your status.
  • Click the checkmark button to confirm that your changes have been saved.
