Can You Be Notified When Someone Is Online on WhatsApp?

Yes, you can. With the help of a feature called ‘Last Seen’, it is possible to keep tabs on when someone is online on WhatsApp. It helps you understand if people are ignoring your messages, or if they are just busy and not able to respond right away.

When someone is online on WhatsApp, the Last Seen status will show the time and date that person was last seen using the app. This information is visible to all your contacts who have access to your profile on WhatsApp.

Any person who has access to your profile can see when you were last active and what time you had been using the app.

However, there are certain options available in the app that can help you maintain some privacy with regards to your Last Seen status. You can change the settings so that only one person or a few people can see when you were last active on WhatsApp. This way, only those contacts which you have given permission will be able to view this information.

You could also choose to hide your Last Seen status completely by disabling it in the settings menu. When this feature is disabled, no one will be able to view when you were last active on the app. This way, no one knows when exactly you are online and thus it provides more privacy.

Conclusion:

WhatsApp’s ‘Last Seen’ feature allows users to keep tabs on each other’s activity and availability on the app without having to reach out for confirmation about it every time. Although this feature cannot directly notify users when someone comes online, it still provides some useful information about their recent activity.
