How to opt out of WhatsApp-Facebook account data sharing

As you may have heard, WhatsApp is starting to share some of users’ account data with Facebook (things like your registered phone number and the last time you used the service) to improve targeted advertising and friend suggestions on Facebook and better fight spam on WhatsApp. Thankfully, you can easily opt out, right when the prompt goes up, here’s how.








                                      

1) Launch WhatsApp and tap the Settings tab.
2) Now tap Account.
3) Untick the box labeled “Share my account info” or toggle the control.
Doing so will stop sharing your WhatsApp account information with Facebook for the purposes of improving ads and products experiences.
