Hide Last Seen Status, Profile Pic on Whatsapp For Android..

WhatsApp is heading to punch its Android users with a surprise after the famous acquisition by Facebook for a whopping $19 billion. The users can now hide their 'last seen' status on Android as well. The feature already exists in the iOS version, though.

This new feature is currently available on the WhatsApp apk, only, which is available on the website. In a tweet by @NotPriyanka, who apparently discovered the settings on Android, the users will now have time privacy on Google powered platform. Furthermore, the users can also hide their profile pictures and status messages, too.

The added advantage to the app's Android version is that unlike on the iOS, the user can swap freely between visible and invisible status, and not wait for 24-hours. The feature enabling hiding of profile pictures and status messages are nice surprise by WhatsApp, for its users.

This privacy feature is not available on the Google Play Store version of WhatsApp, yet. It needs to be fresh downloaded and installed from the website using an apk file. The new version of WhatsApp enables the new privacy tab in Settings and then listed in Account Settings.
