WhatsApp is working on ‘My contacts except’ profile picture privacy feature
WhatsApp is developing the “My contacts except” privacy option for the users. Initially, it was announced for iOS and later confirmed for the Android device. Now, the team is working on the same feature for Profile Picture privacy settings.
For those who don’t know, the new options were previously announced for the ‘Last Seen’ settings. Now, when the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.21.21.2 confirms this function for the profile setting, the users will be able to hide their profile from some individuals in their contact list.
