Maintain Your Online Anonymity on Telegram > 자유게시판

If you are a Telegram user, you must have noticed that the "Last Seen" status is shown in the contact list inside the app, displaying the time when the person was online. This can be a problem for many users, as it may expose about their usage habits. Fortunately, Telegram provides an option to hide this information from your contacts. In this article, we will walk you through of hiding your "Last Seen" status on Telegram.

To hide your "Last Seen" status on Telegram, you need to follow these basic procedures:

First, open the Telegram app and go to the Settings menu. You can find the Settings icon at the top-center corner of the screen, marked with a gear symbol.

Once you are in the Settings menu, you need to select the User settings option from the list.

After selecting 'Privacy and 电报官网 Security,' browse through the list to the 'Last Seen' section and you will see a toggle switch next to it.

Now, you can toggle the switch to the left to turn off the 'Last Seen' status. When you do this, your contacts will no longer be able to know your last seen status.

It's worth noting that by hiding your 'Last Seen' status, you will not be able to access the 'Last Seen' status of your contacts as well. This means that hiding the 'Last Seen' status is a reciprocal arrangement - both you and your contacts will no longer access this information.

If you want to see who has hidden their 'Last Seen' status, you can browse the list in the Settings menu. This list will display the names of all your contacts whose 'Last Seen' status is hidden.

By following these basic instructions, you can effectively hide your 'Last Seen' status on Telegram and protect your online anonymity. However, remember that hiding your 'Last Seen' status is not a foolproof way to keep your online activity private, as your network activity can still reveal information about your online habits.
