How to make an invisible status in WhatsApp on iPhone - in detail?

To achieve an invisible status in WhatsApp on your iPhone, you will need to adjust several settings and employ a few tricks. Here's a detailed guide to help you remain undetected:

  1. Last Seen Privacy: WhatsApp allows users to control who can see their last seen timestamp and status. To hide this information from everyone except your contacts, follow these steps:

    • Open WhatsApp on your iPhone.
    • Tap on 'Settings' (gear icon) at the bottom right corner.
    • Navigate to 'Account'.
    • Select 'Privacy'.
    • Tap on 'Last Seen & Status'.
    • Choose 'Nobody'. This will hide your last seen timestamp and status from all contacts, including those who are not saved in your phone's address book.

  2. Read Receipts: To prevent others from knowing when you've read their messages, disable read receipts:

    • In the 'Privacy' settings, tap on 'Read Receipts'.
    • Toggle off 'Read Receipts'. This will hide blue checkmarks (read receipts) for your sent and received messages.

  3. Profile Picture Privacy: To ensure your profile picture is not visible to everyone, set its visibility:

    • In the 'Privacy' settings, tap on 'Profile Photo'.
    • Choose 'Nobody' or 'My Contacts', depending on your preference.

  4. About Privacy: Similarly, you can control who sees your 'About' information:

    • In the 'Privacy' settings, tap on 'About'.
    • Select 'Nobody' or 'My Contacts'.

  5. Status Updates: To maintain an invisible status while still updating your status, follow these steps:

    • Open WhatsApp and go to the 'Status' tab.
    • Tap on 'My status' at the bottom.
    • Create a new status update with a black image or any other content that you prefer.
    • Tap on the three dots (...) in the top right corner of your updated status.
    • Select 'Status privacy'.
    • Choose 'Nobody' to hide your status updates from all contacts, including those who are not saved in your phone's address book.

  6. Blocking Contacts: If you want to remain invisible to specific contacts, consider blocking them:

    • Open WhatsApp and go to the chat with the contact you want to block.
    • Tap on their name at the top of the screen.
    • Scroll down and tap on 'Block Contact'. This will prevent the blocked contact from seeing your last seen timestamp, status updates, profile picture, and about information.

By following these steps, you can effectively create an invisible status in WhatsApp on your iPhone. Keep in mind that some features may have limitations or require additional settings adjustments based on your specific needs and preferences.
