How to hide your WhatsApp profile photo, last seen from selected users
WhatsApp has shared another new method of privacy on its platform so that the user can hide his information from selected people.
Recently WhatsApp has introduced some new features that will allow you to keep your account secure from people you don't want to give access. The meta-owned messaging platform is now allowing users to hide their profile photos, status updates and 'last seen' from certain individuals, if they wish.
WhatsApp is constantly rolling out features that make this meta-owned messaging app a better, more easy way to communicate on other platforms. Three of the latest features include the ability to mute certain people during a group call, the option to hide your profile picture from specific people as well as your 'last seen'.
Video conferencing apps like Zoom and Microsoft Teams allow hosts to mute all participants on a call or even specific ones, but they do not offer the option for individual users to mute who they want during a call. The new feature on WhatsApp is handy for controlling voice calls (that can accommodate up to 32 users) and video calls (maximum of eight people).
You can also message specific people during a group call and this helps if you want to speak to a certain caller while the call is on without involving all the participants. There is a new banner rolling in as well that will notify callers when someone new has joined the call once it has already started.
