Whatapp photo and status blocked?

Hello,

Does anyone here know a lot about WhatsApp?

A WhatsApp contact told me that his photo, status, and last seen aren't visible because his SIM card isn't in his phone. The contact is from Colombia and plans to buy a new card here in Europe later.

I checked it myself and my photo and all information do not disappear when I remove the SIM card.

Has this person changed something in their privacy settings so that they are no longer visible to anyone but me?

Messages can be sent and received, I wanted to find out more about this first.

Thank you 🙂

Maybe he saved his contacts not on the phone, but on his SIM card. Now he has removed his SIM card and you are no longer in his contacts, so you may not have access to profile image, status, etc. if he only shares it with his contacts.

First question: Yes, that goes. WhatsApp must be verified with the number, but the SIM card does not have to be stuck in the device on which WhatsApp is used with this number.

Second question: I honestly don’t know.

These are all things that you can hide from people who have not been stored.

Then he played around the settings

I’d guess he changed that in the settings, but he’s not aware of it. It should not be on the SIM card.

The settings are not so open that it just happens so accidentally.

Is that what he’s been doing?

Can be displayed in the settings for individual persons. I think SIM card is unlikely as messages are still delivered. WhatsApp can also be opened online without a SIM card. About the browser.
