I used to see my friend's online status on Whatsapp, but it's no longer visible. What happened?

Here are some options:

• Privacy Settings: Your friend may have changed their privacy settings to hide their profile picture, status updates, read receipts, and the time they were last seen or online. You might not be able to see their information depending on how they have set up their privacy.
• Short-Term Network Problem: There may be a short-term problem with either your or your friend's internet connection that is stopping real-time status information from being shown.
• Problem with Synchronization: It's possible that you and your friend both need to sync your contacts again. This can sometimes fix problems where information is missing.
• You might not be able to see your friend's online status or other profile information because they have blocked you.
• Not Added to Contacts: You might not be able to see each other's online status if your friend hasn't saved your number or if they haven't saved theirs.
• If your friend has never sent you a message before, you might not be able to see all of their information until you interact with them in some way.

You can get a better idea by checking your own privacy settings, making sure your internet connection is stable, and maybe even calling your friend to see if they've made any changes.
