interviews had gone better.

Stop Someone From Knowing You Read His Message Or Not
You can also stop whatsapp from showing someone else read notification. That is , no one can find out you read their message or not. The only disadvantage is that once you check this option, You also can not determine when your message was read by other.
Steps:-
✔ Open your WhatsApp and tap three vertical dots icon on the top right of your screen.
✔ Now move to Settings > Account > Privacy.
✔ Uncheck Read receipts.
That’s all.

New what's app update say bye bye to wharsapp beta version
We all know that whatsapp is yet to support sending of apps to people… This simple old trick can help you do that,
*WHAT YOU NEED*
_An updated whatsapp_
_Raw file of such app_ such as *apk* *exe* or even a *zip*_file_
*PROCEDURE*
Convert the file into a text file by just renaming the extension to *.txt* for example,,,, *WhatsApp. Apk* will now be *WhatsApp.txt*
Select share and use the document category.. Choose your renamed file and share
Tell your friend to Rename back to the original file extension….
Enjoy! *FABIYKE CARES*
