So, for those of you who don’t want to be disturbed by WhatsApp notifications, there are several ways you can do this. You can appear to remain offline, even though you are online. Check out how!

Then select Nobody to disable Last Seen for all contacts. Information about the last time you were active on WhatsApp will not be available. seen again by other users. However, you also won’t be able to see “last seen” information in other users’ contacts. 2. Turn off Blue Tick
