WhatsApp officially announced a few days ago an extremely important change that will be made for the messaging application on iPhone and Android in the immediate future, but before it is made, it is already generating big problems. More precisely, those at WhatsApp have announced the launch of a new function for iPhone and Android that will allow us to hide from various people whether we are, or not, online at a certain moment in the platform.
WhatsApp is working on an official release for this important change, but while this is happening, people are starting to complain about the fact that they are seeing erroneous information about their online status, or that of other people. While some people have blocked the status and are displayed online all the time, they see other people who have displayed the status as being online, although in reality they are not active in the messaging platform.
WhatsApp: ATTENTION! The problem that frustrates millions of people with iPhone and Android
WhatsApp announced the launch of the function that allows hiding the online status from certain people to give us the possibility of not allowing certain people to see when we are active, or not, on the platform, but it seems that not everything works as it should yet. The system was released in beta version for the beta applications of WhatsApp for iPhone and Android, and as the testing process moves to the public applications, problems also appear.
Problems like this are the reason why, in general, new features like this are tested in beta apps for iPhone and Android before being released to the general public, but unfortunately sometimes problems still occur even in these situations. In this idea, if you see someone constantly appearing online on WhatsApp, or if you are constantly appearing online, it is good to know that the problem comes from the platform and not from you.
While WhatsApp is working on the ability to hide the online status (it will be released soon), it seems there is a bug that keeps showing "online". 😁 https://t.co/B7ChExfBGi

WhatsApp has not said anything official about this problem, even though quite a large number of people are complaining about it, but it's good to know that it exists and that you can't do anything to solve it.
