People’s WhatsApp status are like Instagram/Facebook stories. If people check your WhatsApp Status you'll get to know when you check the list. But there's how to see others’ status without letting them know.
Technology News: WhatsApp status’ work a bit like Facebook and Instagram stories. They stay for twenty-four hours and you'll add multiple status updates a bit like it's with stories on the other two Facebook-owned platforms.
But like on Instagram you'll make a group of close friends and share stories that just they will see, incase you would like to keep some content away from those who follow you there, WhatsApp doesn't have that option. All contact on WhatsApp can see your status if you post one.
There are instances where you would possibly want to see someone’s status and not allow them to know - just as it'd happen on Facebook or Instagram. And there's an easy way to do it.
And it involves the ‘Read’ receipt.
All you need to do to keep your profile from popping up on someone’s status checked-list os by turning off the Read receipt.
Go to Settings, click on ‘Privacy’ and turn off the Read receipts.
Now if you check someone’s status, he/she won't be able to see your name on the list of individuals . Easy.
Like it is with turning off Read receipts that removes the double blue tick from your messages, it also disappears for all of your chats and you don’t get to know if others have read your messages or now - an equivalent also happens for the WhatsApp status.
If you switch Read receipts off, you'll also not be able to see who all have checked your status.
So you would like to make a decision what’s important to you then take the plunge. in fact it’s as easy to undo it as it is to do it. you'll always return into your settings and turn on Read receipts for things to return to normal.
A real sneaky ebay to do things would be to toggle the Read receipts off whenever you would like to see someone’s status and not allow them to know then turn it on after 24 hours. But this whole process looks like way an excessive amount of work for far too little. People have been known to go to fascinating lengths though.
