How to Make WA Status Only Viewable by Certain Numbers, Keep Privacy Here!

Instagram Stories and Facebook Stories are popular features and a similar look can also be enjoyed as WhatsApp Status or WA status.


With the WhatsApp Status feature, users can display photos, videos, or text to WA status but it will automatically disappear after 24 hours.

Unlike Instagram Stories and Facebook Stories, this WA status is more personal because it can only be seen by other people who have saved WhatsApp contacts for WA Status users.

However, users can also create WA Status to make it even more personal, so it can only be seen by close friends.

On Instagram, this is similar to the "close friend" feature in Instagram Stories.

So how to use it is also similar, that is, you only need to choose which contacts can see the WA status.

Here's how to make WA Status only visible to close friends.
  • Open WhatsApp and select the "Status" menu, which is between the "chat" and "call" menus.
  • Click the three-dot menu in the upper right corner and select "privacy status".
  • Three options will appear, namely me", "except my contacts", and "share only with".
  • If you select "my contacts", then everyone who saved your WhatsApp number will be able to see the WhatsApp Status created.
  • If you select "my contacts except", then everyone who saved your contacts will be able to see that WhatsApp Status with the exception of certain numbers.
  • Exceptions can be made by checking some unwanted contacts to view WA status.
  • The third option is "share only with" which is most similar to making a "close friend" on Instagram.
  • You can choose only certain contacts that can see the WhatsApp Status created.
This setting will not affect the WA status that you can see.

So even if you limit people who can see WA status, you can still see all WA status from people whose contacts are saved.

Unless that person also applies the same settings to restrict you from seeing their WA status.

How? easy is not the way so that WA status can only be seen by certain numbers.
