How to make the status "has been recently" in whatsapp

If you don't want your WhatsApp profile to show when you were last online, you can hide your online status. It will not disappear completely, just instead of the exact time, other users will see “was / and recently”.

As in the case of Telegram, VKontakte and other messengers with a similar function, hiding the status works both ways: if the user can't see your exact status, you can't follow them either you can.
