Step 1: Open WhatsApp
Launch the WhatsApp application on your smartphone. Make sure you have the latest version of WhatsApp installed to access all the latest features and updates.
Step 2: Go to Status
Tap on the “Status” tab at the bottom of the screen. This will take you to the Status section where you can view all the statuses posted by your contacts, as well as your own.
Step 3: Find the Status to Delete
Scroll through the list of statuses until you find the one you want to delete. WhatsApp displays your own status at the top of the list, making it easier to locate.
Step 4: Tap on the Menu Button
Once you have found the status you wish to delete, tap on the three-dot menu button located at the top-right corner of the status. This will open a drop-down menu with various options.
Step 5: Select “Delete”
From the options in the drop-down menu, select “Delete.” WhatsApp will then prompt you with a confirmation message asking if you are sure you want to delete the status.
Step 6: Confirm Deletion
Tap on the “Delete” button to confirm that you want to delete the selected status. Once confirmed, WhatsApp will remove the status from your profile and it will no longer be visible to your contacts.
Step 7: Done!
That’s it! You have successfully deleted a WhatsApp status. You can now rest assured that the status you wanted to remove is no longer visible to anyone.
Deleting a WhatsApp status is a simple and quick process. Whether it’s to correct a mistake or maintain your privacy, WhatsApp provides the option to delete statuses with just a few taps.
