Your WhatsApp status is getting another layer of privacy

Users get to control who sees their status before they hit send.

According to a recent report by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is testing a new feature that will add another layer of privacy to your status updates. Additionally, WhatsApp is said to be improving the overall status experience by lining up the most relevant updates at the beginning of the list. This means updates from people you frequently talk to or contacts pinned in the Chats tab will be the first to pop on the horizontal list (via Android Police).
