Hide "last seen" WhatsApp status from specific contacts

WhatsApp will allow users to block specific contacts from viewing your information in a future update, WABetaInfo reported.

Currently, profile information is visible to everyone, your contacts, or no one, depending on your preference.

Now can they please add an out of office or do not disturb feature for all new/existing chats/groups.
Unless I'm not looking hard enough, I dont see an option to mute all ?

Hide "online"... Nobody needs to know when I'm texting my mistress...

I just wish there was a way of switching WhatsApp off to not receive messages or phone calls without having to delete the program or going into Aeroplane mode or switching phone off

There should be a DND function (Do Not Disturb) that actually does what it means.

Delete Whatsapp

No can do, too many friends on it and none of them on Telegram
Same as the group chats, everyone is on WhatsApp, even after that POPI scare they all came back

I am not going back to SMS again

If you don't want calls or texts then your phone may as well be off or in airplane mode.
