In the current stable version, WhatsApp only allows three options for sharing “last seen” status. You can let anyone who has your number see only people who are saved in your contacts or no one.

The new solution simplifies sharing with the vast majority of your friends and family, while giving you the option to delete people you definitely don’t want to know when you were on WhatsApp.

Other messengers have long since solved this problem, albeit with their own kinks. For example, Telegram mirrors WhatsApp’s approach and lets you choose specific contacts with whom you’ll always want to share your “last seen” status.

This way, you can organize a small list of trusted friends and family, which seems simpler than highlighting all your work contacts, bullying parents, and others with whom you don’t want to share your status.

Currently, this change to ‘last seen’ is not widely implemented in WhatsApp because the functionality is part of server switching. If you want to have a chance to start using it, download the latest beta version of WhatsApp.
