How to enable incognito mode in WhatsApp on iPhone - in detail?

Enabling Incognito Mode, also known as Private Browsing or InPrivate Browsing, in WhatsApp on an iPhone can help ensure that your online activities are not tracked or stored in your browsing history. While WhatsApp itself does not have a built-in incognito mode like web browsers do, you can achieve a similar level of privacy by using Safari's incognito mode to access WhatsApp Web. Here is a detailed guide on how to enable this feature:

  1. Open the Safari Browser: First, unlock your iPhone and open the Safari browser. You can find it on the home screen or search for it using Spotlight Search.
  2. Access Incognito Mode: To enter incognito mode in Safari, tap on the tabs icon at the bottom right of the screen (it looks like two overlapping squares). Then, tap on the 'Private' option located at the bottom left corner of the screen. This will open a new private browsing window.
  3. Navigate to WhatsApp Web: In the incognito mode window, type "web.whatsapp.com" in the address bar and press Enter or tap on 'Go'. This will take you to the WhatsApp Web login page.
  4. Scan the QR Code: Open the WhatsApp application on your iPhone. Tap on 'Settings' at the bottom right of the screen, then select 'WhatsApp Web/Desktop'. This will open a scanner that you can use to scan the QR code displayed on the Safari incognito mode window.
  5. Log In: Once the QR code is successfully scanned, your WhatsApp account will be logged into WhatsApp Web within the incognito mode window. You can now use WhatsApp in a more private manner without leaving any trace on your iPhone's browsing history.
  6. Close Incognito Mode: When you are done using WhatsApp in incognito mode, simply close the Safari browser. All cookies and browsing data will be automatically cleared once you exit the private window.

By following these steps, you can effectively enable an incognito-like mode for accessing WhatsApp on your iPhone, ensuring that your online activities remain private and secure.
