    How Users Can Change It?

The Meta messenger WhatsApp did not allow the user to privately check their account. Though the users were able to turn off the ‘Last Seen’ feature. It showed the time stamp of the last time they used the online messaging platform. They could not hide when they were online from their contacts. So, when WhatsApp users opened the messaging app, their contacts could view their online status.

So when users want their online presence private, the app has rolled out the much-awaited feature. It allows users to chat with specific people without enabling their online presence. The online presence feature lets the users decide who can see them when they are online.
