How WhatsApp status tracker works and how to prevent it
I started testing few whatsapp trackers and it looks like it's working even if you disabled "last seen" option on your privacy settings.
The apps give you when and how much a person was online and it's kinda scary from a privacy perspective, so any idea how these apps works ? and the most important questions is how to prevent it?
