Most likely, this has happened to most users when they just went to a VKontakte page, turned on background music in order to do something, and then messages began to arrive, distracting them. All this happens because friends from a social network see that a person is online. You have to answer or sometimes even ignore your friend if there is practically no time. Alternatively, you can simply be in Offline mode, being on your page and listening to your audio recordings. This mode is called “invisible”. In this short instruction you can learn how to enable VKontakte invisibility on your PC
.
All the methods listed below have been personally tested by me and work 100%, so you don’t even have to doubt it. I will not suggest you download viruses or potentially unwanted software. We will use standard browser tools, special extensions, as well as an application for mobile devices. All the options considered will help you remain invisible on the VKontakte social network. I’ll say right away that if you want to use the social network in full and are at the same time offline, then I’ll tell you right away, alas, this is not realistic. About all the subtleties below.
1st method: VKontakte invisible mode
The simplest way is in front of you. Let's go to your personal VK page and go to the “Messages” section.
In this section we do not perform any actions for about 15 minutes.
After this, you become offline, that is, invisible. Now that you are in “offline” mode, you can easily navigate social pages. networks. To check whether you are really offline, log in from another device (PC or phone) and check whether offline or online is displayed.
This method has one drawback: if you suddenly go to the “My Page” section or go to your friends’ page, your status will immediately change and you will be online.
Therefore, in order to be invisible on VKontakte
, you can only view your news, watch videos and listen to music, nothing more.
In order to become invisible in VK, you don’t have to wait 15-20 minutes, you can do it in a clever way. Save a link to VKontakte in a tab or express panel, but only so that it does not lead to your page or to the main page. For example, the link vk.com/music or another section will do. Now when you log into VK through this bookmark, no one will know that you are online, since you will remain invisible to everyone, that is, offline.
How to be invisible in VK from a computer
There are several options to remain invisible in VK from your computer. We will look at the most popular methods for this. You decide which one to choose yourself. Let's also talk about one possibility that can be called official (though with some reservations).
Official way
In fact, the word “official” can be put in quotation marks here. On the VKontakte website there is no such function as visiting your account incognito. However, since this entire system operates on the basis of program code, it can be “deceived.” The truth is not in everything and not always.
We are now talking about the time you are inactive on the Internet. After all, you don’t log out of your profile every time using the “Log Out” button. Often you just click on the cross in the right corner. In this case, the system counts down some time and makes your status offline.
We can use this calculation of the system to be in stealth mode in VK from a computer. For this:
- Log in to your profile.
- Go to the news tab.
- Do nothing for about 15 minutes.
- The system will think that you clicked on the cross and left and will deactivate your online status.
After this, you can safely be online. But some actions will throw you back online. Let's list what you can and cannot do to prevent the invisible mode in VK from disappearing from your computer.
Can:
- View the news feed.
- Open posts in full screen.
- Go to the album with audio recordings.
- Listen to music.
It is forbidden:
- Go to your main page.
- Open your friends list.
- Read and write messages.
- Join groups and pages of other users.
As you can see, the possibilities are very limited. But if you just want to scroll through the news or listen to music, then this option is quite good. By the way, this may not work with video recordings. It may turn out that you watch five videos on your computer, and the sixth one will throw you online. Therefore, you need to be careful here.
So we’ve looked at one of the ways to be invisible in VK from a computer. Let's talk about others.
Plugins
Special plugins for PCs will help us answer the question of how to log into VK invisible from a computer. These are browser extensions designed specifically for this social network. As a rule, they are not limited to one single function, which is what attracts users. For example, they can help. Let's talk about one of these extensions.
VKlife Offline
This is an extension that will give us the opportunity to log into VK from a computer invisible. It is perhaps the most popular among users, so we decided to talk about it.
To try out VKlife Offline, do this:
- Go to the Chrome Store at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/vklife-offline/dlfacmdgahibomlgegdcjnjaonljjnne/related?hl=en.
- Here you will see the name of the VKlife Offline plugin.
- It can be quickly installed by clicking on the appropriate button.
- Afterwards it will change to “Run”, which is what you should do.
- A window will appear in front of you where you need to click “Log in via VKontakte”.
- Don't forget to remove unnecessary checkmarks under this inscription.
- Now you need to enter your login and password for the page.
- Then click “Login”.
You will find yourself on your page, but no one will know about it. After all, you will have the VK stealth mode activated for your computer.
In general, this plugin has other useful functions in its full version, which is called VKlife.
- You can download music and videos.
- Track who unfriended or blocked you.
- View additional information about friends and followers.
You can also install this plugin from the official website https://vklife.ru/. True, this version is only compatible with Yandex Browser. If you start installing the extension, the browser will install automatically.
If you don’t want to install anything, neither extensions nor browsers, then we have another way for you. Next, we will tell you how to log into VK invisible from a PC without downloading anything unnecessary to your computer.
APIDog
VK invisibility from a computer without downloading plugins is possible by logging into a special website. It's called Apidog and keeps your online presence incognito.
How to log into VK invisible from a computer using it? Very simple.
- Go to https://apidog.ru/.
- Select the device you are using. In our case it is Windows.
- Enter your username and password for your page and you're done.
By logging into VK for your computer in this way, you will not be online and will remain invisible. Unfortunately, this site does not give a 100% guarantee that you will not be exposed. Some menu items may change your status to online. To avoid this, do this:
- Go to “Settings” - they are in the block on the left.
- In the “Site” tab, scroll down the page.
- There, check the box next to the line “highlight site elements with a red frame that stand out online.”
- You will now be warned. So, for example, the “Messages” and “News” blocks will appear in red frames. This means that if you go to them, you can end up online.
Initially, the site is configured to enable VK invisibility for your PC. But, if you want to be seen, you can change your status there in the settings. In the “Site” tab - the line “set online mode”.
Also, the online status will appear on your computer if, while on the site, you:
- Write comments.
- Give likes. By the way, all likes can be removed later.
- Post or repost.
- Upload photos.
- Well, and, as you may have guessed, write messages.
Method 2: become invisible in VK in Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers
There is a special plugin for Chrome and Firefox browsers called Vkfox.
It will allow you to follow news and personal messages while remaining offline. Using the Chrome browser as an example, I will show you how to install it. Follow the link or go to the official website https://vkfox.io. Next, install this plugin in the browser. To do this, click on the “Install” button.
Click “Install extension”.
Now we will be asked to activate this application by clicking on the corresponding icon. Let's do it.
Afterwards, a window will pop up asking for permission to use VK. Here we just click “Allow”.
Now click on the new icon with the mouse and see the settings window. We go to the settings of this plugin and set a cross next to the “Always be online” item, as can be seen in the image.
After all these steps, you will always be in Offline mode, use your page to your health.
Important! You can browse the social network, but you will be invisible to other users. However, you just have to write a message to someone, comment on a post or someone’s photo, and the mode will immediately change to Online. Accordingly, all your friends and others will see that you are online. So be careful when viewing all kinds of information.
Add-on for Google Chrome VKopt
VKopt is a very popular Google Chrome add-on for VKontakte . We can say that this is a whole combine that will allow you to make many settings and use the capabilities of your favorite social network to the maximum. Among the settings:
- Scrobbler fm;
- Setting the dislike button (dislike);
- Division of groups by gender;
- Checking for new and deleted friends;
- Saving correspondence to a file;
- Smileys;
- And much more.
More details can be found at the link above.
3rd method: invisible VKontakte - use third-party programs
You can be on a social network not only through a browser, but also through special applications. One of the popular ones for Windows today is VKlife. A convenient utility that will greatly simplify the use of the social network. You can remain in stealth mode while listening to your music and chatting with friends.
Apart from the offline feature, there are many different interesting features. I think every user will find cool features for themselves, thanks to which the contact can be used more conveniently than ever. Alternatively, you can use programs such as QIP and ICQ. I think few people don’t know about them. The developers of these applications have introduced an authorization function via VK. So, these messengers also have an invisibility function. I advise you to download programs not from any exchangers, but from official websites.
You can download VKlife here vklife.ru You can download QIP here qip.ru
Method 4: Invisibility on an Android mobile device
If you have a gadget with the Android operating system and want to become invisible, then there is an alternative solution. There is an unofficial client of the VKontakte social network called KateVK. It has a stealth mode feature. To activate it, go to the application settings and activate the “Be offline if possible” item.
KateVK is very easy to use and many users have already replaced the standard VK client with this one.
According to the developers, it is not only convenient, but also fast and reliable. In general, if you want, you can try it by downloading it from the official website katemobile.ru. This method is the best to be in stealth mode on Android
device.
There is another way that will help enable VKontakte invisibility on a PC: use anonymizers or, in other words, mirrors. They are usually used to bypass the blocking of a particular resource. Such sites will encrypt current connections, so you can remain invisible on VK for a long time. However, immediately after leaving the social network, I recommend changing your password when using the mirror.
Invisible VKontakte
– this is a very good feature, thanks to which you can stay offline while viewing your news and listening to music. I hope that from all the methods you will choose the one that suits you! That's all! Thank you for your attention!
Extensions for Mozilla Firefox
If you need a plugin to download VKontakte files exclusively in mp3 format, I can recommend a small extension. It can be found at this link.
But I think that you will be more interested and useful in the VKontakte.ru Downloader plugin, which can download music, photos and video files. You can get the download link for this extension here. During the installation process you may see the following message:
Quite often and blatantly, Firefox “corrects” the user’s wishes, which is very annoying. It is sometimes worth fighting with him for the right of supremacy. After clicking “Allow”, the plugin will still be installed and the browser will require a restart:
After the restart, the add-on icon will appear to the right of the search bar. It looks like a gray arrow pointing down:
And next to each audio recording on the VKontakte page, a blue arrow symbol will appear, also pointing down:
When you click on it, a window will open to save the audio file on your computer, where you can select the drive, specify the directory and name for the downloaded file:
A special feature of the VKontakte.ru Downloader plugin is that, unlike others, it:
- Provides the ability to select disk space for the downloaded file;
- Preserves its original name or accepts the name given to the file by the user;
- Functions without surprises.
