Did you know? You can privatize your whatsapp status to just a contact - See how

Whatsapp status privacy

Hoping this would definitely resolve lots of issues and worries to most whatsapp messenger users.

We all one way or the other have contacts who are annoying and always wanting to scold or talk ill about our status whenever we upload.

Do you have a jealous girlfriend, wife or boyfriend who always checks on your status back to back, looking for status update that would definitely cause little or more quarrels in the relationship? Or do you wish to upload a particular status to reach out to just a particular contact or set of selected contacts?

Funny enough this feature has been available for months now and only few users make good use of this feature, and we must say it is a big Saving relationship feature 😂.

I was wondering why she should be posting such publicly, until I was smart enough to find out the status was privatized just for my view only.

So today droidvilla.com is making this post solely for the purpose to save many relationships😂 and to prevent scolding.
