Viber is one of the most popular instant messaging apps for iOS and Android users. It comes with various options, and you can easily turn them off and on. One of the things that you can turn off is your online status. In addition, you can hide your seen status as well.

Doing this is simple, but if you just started using the app, perhaps you don’t know where these options are. That’s why we are here. Here, you can read a quick and simple guide on hiding online status and last seen status on Viber.

How to Hide Online Status and Seen Status on Viber

Perhaps you don’t want all of your contacts to see your online status, and maybe you would like to hide your seen status as well. You can change that in seconds, and we will show you how. The steps are as follows:

  • Open the Viber app on your Android or iOS device
  • Next, tap More and then tap Settings
  • Once you enter Settings, tap Privacy

At the top of the Privacy page, you will see options Share “online” status and Share “seen” status. Just tap on each, and they will turn off.

It is important to mention that you can’t change the Share “online” status option more than once every 24 hours. So, if you change your mind and want to turn it back on, you will have to wait for a day before you can do that. Viber will notify you when you can make changes again.
