How to make WhatsApp invisible to other users on Honor - in detail?

To ensure your WhatsApp presence is not visible to others on an Honor device, you can employ several methods that enhance your privacy settings. Here's a detailed guide:

1. Last Seen Status: By default, WhatsApp displays the last time you were active on the app. To make yourself invisible, you need to change this setting.

   • Open WhatsApp and go to Settings.
   • Tap on Account > Privacy.
   • Here, under "Last Seen," choose "Nobody." This way, no one will be able to see when you were last active.

2. Read Receipts: Read receipts allow others to know when you have read their messages. Disabling this feature can help maintain your invisibility.

   • In the Privacy settings, look for "Read Receipts."
   • Turn off the toggle switch next to it. This will prevent others from knowing when you've read their messages.

3. Profile Picture: Your profile picture is visible to everyone by default. To make your profile picture private:

   • In Privacy settings, tap on "Profile Photo."
   • Choose "Nobody" to restrict who can see your profile picture.

4. Status: WhatsApp Status allows you to share updates with your contacts. However, this can also reveal your activity.

   • Under Privacy settings, tap on "Status."
   • Select "My Contacts" if you only want close contacts to see your status updates or choose "Nobody" for complete privacy.

5. Blocking Users: If there are specific users whose messages you don't want to receive, you can block them.

   • Open the chat with the user you want to block.
   • Tap on the three dots (more options) in the top right corner.
   • Select "More" > "Block." This will prevent that user from contacting you or seeing your online status.

6. Use Airplane Mode: For temporary invisibility, you can use Airplane Mode to disconnect from the internet.

   • Swipe down from the top of your screen to access Quick Settings.
   • Tap on the Airplane Mode icon to enable it. This will temporarily make you invisible to others as WhatsApp won't be able to update your status.

By following these steps, you can significantly reduce your visibility on WhatsApp, enhancing your privacy while using an Honor device.
