WhatsApp will allow users of the platform to hide the “online” part of their profile, meaning they will no longer need to respond if they don’t respond to someone’s message on Zap. Meta, which manages WhatsApp, announced the news this Tuesday (9). It will be made available to all users by the end of this month.

The news doesn't stop there: it will be possible to block screenshots in single-view messages. It will also be possible for groups to leave without anyone noticing.
The new features increase the privacy of those who use the application and will be launched on different dates throughout the month. The unnoticed exit is now available this Tuesday and the user already has access when they update WhatsApp in the app store, but it is worth remembering that the exit is not 100% unnoticed, as group administrators will be notified when someone leaves.
