Today we&#039;ll teach you how to hide your profile picture and statuses without blocking anyone.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-7\">Whether you want to post a fun photo and only want your contacts to see it, or you want to upload an image or video to your status and exclude certain people. <b>WhatsApp allows us to restrict our visibility to our contacts.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\">These days, it&#039;s very important that we protect our privacy. We tend to share a lot of information about our personal lives on social media. That&#039;s why today we&#039;re showing you how to restrict sharing information on WhatsApp with certain contacts.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<h2 class=\"ai-optimize-9\"><strong>Show or Block Photo<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-10\">The first thing we must do is press the <strong>three vertical dots<\/strong> that appear at the top right of the application. When you do this, a window appears with several options, one of which is <strong>Settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_8622\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8622\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8622 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geekine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp1a-1.jpg\" alt=\"geekine.com - Restrict photo and status\" width=\"800\" height=\"420\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8622\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">It all starts in the app settings. | Image: WhatsApp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\">When we select <strong>Settings<\/strong>, we enter the following window.

It is distinguished by <strong>the icon of a key<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_8624\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8624\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8624 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geekine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/qheronet-te-ensenamos-como-ocultar-tu-foto-y-estados-en-whatsapp-1.jpg\" alt=\"geekine.com - Restrict photos and status\" width=\"800\" height=\"420\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8624\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The app offers you a good number of parameters. | Image: WhatsApp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-12\">Then, on the next screen, a variety of options appear to select.
