How many times has it happened to us that we are busy with our mobile or we are in a meeting, but we receive those messages on Whatsapp that we do not want to answer, but we do not want to disconnect our Internet? The solution is very easy, by configuring our mobile in a specific way you can deactivate WhatsApp on iPhone or Android to stop receiving messages but with the Internet connection active.

We can find a configuration by entering our mobile that allows us to access the applications that you want to no longer allow internet access and thus not receive annoying messages at times when we do not want them and see them later when we are already idle.

It is not necessary to have knowledge in mobile devices to carry out the WhatsApp disconnection, the ideal is that you only do it when it is strictly necessary since if you forget to reconnect your networks you may not receive notifications of messages that may be important for you.

How to deactivate WhatsApp?

To carry out this configuration we must follow these steps, first of all we must access the main screen of our mobile, within the device there are applications that are running in the background and that is why we see notifications from other applications such as Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp to our mobile device all the time even when we are not actively using it.

From the main screen of our mobile device we will access the Settings menu by sliding the bottom of our screen or by accessing Menu → Settings, from here we can see different tabs with options to make changes to our device, we check the Applications option, entering this we will see a list of applications installed and running at the same time.

Then we look in this list for the WhatsApp that appears with its logo and the current use of the application, so we will realize how much each application occupies us on our mobile, especially those that are developed in the background.

A tab opens where we find the option to uninstall the program and another that says “Force Stop”, we click on the latter and it will ask us for a confirmation of this action on the device, we accept and the WhatsApp application stops us completely in our mobile. With these same steps we can stop Apps that consume a lot of Ram memory on Android.

In this way we find that the application is still available but we will no longer receive notifications of new messages along with their notification sound in the bottom bar of the screen or messages on the screen when we have the mobile turned off without using it.

How to activate WhatsApp notifications?

To correct and activate WhatsApp notifications or messages again, it is a matter of reopening the application and everything will return to normal, this WhatsApp disconnection option is a good idea that takes us a few minutes and solves this problem in the event that we are busy, in a meeting or in an emergency and we need to be in “Do not disturb” mode of social networks.

This solution can also be carried out in any application that we do not want to receive notifications of any kind until we start them again, for example; Facebook, Instagram, Twitter among others.

It is important to know that it is also very useful for us to free up ram memory. For example, when we are going to play a video game or watch videos, movies, etc. and perhaps our memory is full of applications in the background, then it prevents the device from working at 100% of its capacity and graphic performance at the time of use, since It will only be enough to activate the applications again when we finish playing, watching movies or videos on our mobile.

The good thing about this option to temporarily deactivate WhatsApp without disconnecting the internet is that it allows us to continue using any browser, watch videos, play games, receive video calls and even use another social network, without losing the usual navigation on your mobile.
