Will I be visible in my friends’ WhatsApp contact lists? No, if you delete your WhatsApp account permanently, your friends will be unable to find you in their contact list. They’ll still be able to see previous conversations, as previously stated.
People can still send you messages when you uninstall WhatsApp. You will not be notified about this since the software isn’t installed on your phone. When your WhatsApp account is deleted, you won’t get any more messages sent to that address.
The company claims that once you delete your WhatsApp account, you will not be able to recover access to it and will have to start over. Your WhatsApp data is kept for 90 days before being deleted.
To use WhatsApp on your Android phone, go to the settings menu (under General Android Settings) > Apps> Open the list of installed apps. Select WhatsApp and press “Force stop.”
Open WhatsApp and go to your Settings page, which is in the lower right corner. Next, select Chat Settings/Privacy > Advanced from the drop-down menu. Select Nobody to turn off the application timestamps, then toggle the Last Seen Timestamp option to OFF. This approach lets you stay in “offline” mode even after closing WhatsApp.
