You can set your status to invisible anytime you want. Your presence status is hidden so that you appear to be offline but calls and messages aren't blocked. To your contacts, the last time your status was set to active or do not disturb is shown under your chat header as Last seen - days, hours, or minutes ago. You can set your status to do not disturb anytime you want. If you want to receive in-app chat or call notifications while your status is set to do not disturb, you can manage your notifications on mobile or desktop. Contacts can still call and send messages, but you won't be alerted with sound. You can also set your status to appear away anytime you want.
