One reason people use GB WhatsApp is to gain more control over online visibility. Depending on the build, privacy settings may include options to hide online status, freeze last seen or control who sees activity indicators.

Typical steps

  1. Open GB WhatsApp.
  2. Open the mod or privacy settings section.
  3. Find options related to online status or last seen.
  4. Enable the setting you want.
  5. Restart the app if the change does not apply immediately.

If the option is missing

Feature names and menus differ between builds. An older version may not include the same privacy controls as a newer one.

Privacy limitation

Hiding a visible indicator does not make the app anonymous. The service and the app may still process account, device and network information required for messaging.
