GBWhatsApp is a popular modified variant of WhatsApp. Developers of GBWhatsApp created it with the focus to provide some exclusive features that people don’t get on WhatsApp.
The owner of GBWhatsApp has created GBWhatsApp for iOS and you can use WhatsApp web in GBWhatsApp too. Its purpose is to provide the same WhatsApp like experience to its users but with extra advanced features like –
- privacy options
- always online feature
- hide typing status
- hide online status
- DND mode, etc.
One of its features includes viewing the status of others without letting them know. In normal WhatsApp, we can directly see someone’s status with our view, but in GBWhatsApp we can view their status without letting them know. Yes, it’s true that we can view someone’s status and even retrieve old WhatsApp messages. And it is one of the hidden tricks of GBWhatsApp. But the question arises: how can we do that?
3 Ways to View Whatsapp Status Without Letting Them Know
1. Go to settings > account > privacy > read receipts> turn off the read receipts.
This is the official way of checking someone’s status without letting them know. However, there is a catch just as switching off the read receipts for messages does not let you know if the person has read your message or not, but you can still check your friends online. You also can not see who all have checked your status.
2. As you may know, WhatsApp also keeps track of your offline activity inside the application, meaning it keeps a log of everything you do while you are offline on the browser or the local storage of your mobile and syncs it with your online activity. It’s the same with other GBWhatsApp alternatives and older versions of GBWhatsApp.
3. We can see someone’s status by disconnecting the internet. Let the status load and then disconnect your phone from Wi-Fi or mobile data. If you want to know more about someone then you can track the WhatsApp account of that person.
Conclusion
Now, you can use any of the above 3 methods to check WhatsApp status without letting know the other person. And to track someone’s location or read their messages. As secrecy is the essence these tricks can help you see anyone’s status secretly and this is a very exciting feature that GBWhatsApp provides us.
