Installing applications in Contact

To install you only need to take a couple of steps:

We find the line “Applications” on the page in the column on the left. We click on it.
Enter the name of the game that interests you most in the search bar, or select from the list of the most popular. You can also tap the "all apps" button to open even more apps.
Click on the application of your choice, and then click “start game”. That's it, the game will appear in your programs list.

So what we do:

Step 1. Click on the “Applications” line.

If there is no line, then this menu item needs to be enabled in the settings:

Enable menu item

Step 2. Search for the required program. You can use the search, select something from the most popular, and also open all applications.

Search all programs

Here you can click the “All Apps” button to really find one that suits you.

You can choose from the entire list

Another way is to install a special program. There are a lot of them now, but perhaps the most popular are VkLife and ApiDog.

Using them, your account will not go online at all.

Official websites of the programs (the name matches, everything is clear here):

How to turn on invisibility on a mobile phone

In the old version of the official VK application, including on the iPhone, there was a secret function that allowed you to hide the entrance to it from other people.

The new program does not have this option. If you want to become invisible when accessing a social network from your mobile phone, you need to download the Kate Mobile application from the Play Market. It is only available on Android.

So, we go to the store, find the program we need and click “Install”.

Now you need to log in to VKontakte through the application. To make yourself invisible, go to the menu - three dots in the corner of the page. Select the “Settings” item.

In the list you need to find the word “Online”, and under it the inscription “Invisibility Settings”. We come here and see 3 points:

“Online” - allows you to show or hide your login to VK from your phone.
“Close unread.” If you check the box next to this inscription, you can read messages without the interlocutor knowing about it.
“Typing” – shows or hides the fact that you are typing a message.

We are most interested in the first tab, click on it and note that we want to remain offline as much as possible. The application tells you what not to do to remain unnoticed by the system and its users:

update messages, page, news;
post posts on the wall;
send messages to friends.

If you follow these rules and sit quietly on VKontakte, without attracting attention, then you can remain invisible.

How to hide the Contact application?

This question is also sometimes asked, but, unfortunately, it is impossible to answer it directly. There is currently no such feature, but you can always set your privacy in the “My Settings” section so that your page is visible only to friends or those for whom you open this opportunity.

Today there is a lot of talk and debate about applications in VKontakte. How to block, how to do it yourself, how to make money from it, and so on - a great variety. On our own behalf, we would like to add that these programs are simply developed to make it interesting and fun for you, limit yourself to this and enjoy!

How to hide the “online” mode in VK

Previously, until 2021, there was a function that allowed you to disable online status on VKontakte. However, for some reason the developers decided to abolish it. Now this privilege remains only with Pavel Durov himself, despite his dismissal. What should ordinary users of this social network do if they want to hide their status?

Systemic method

There is an official way to hide online VKontakte, but it is not a special tool, but rather an imperfection of the system:

go to your page;
open the messages tab;
do not perform any activities for 15-20 minutes.

After this, the system will decide that you have logged out and then you will not be online in VK. Now you can safely view news, messages, listen to music and visit groups, and your status will remain offline.

However, if you go to someone’s page or switch to your profile (vk.com/id), then your status will again become online.

Despite all the attractiveness, this method has its drawbacks:

as you already understand, you cannot go to other people’s pages and your profile;
Still, you will have to be online first, and this may not be liked by those users who do not want to show that they were online at all;

Now you know how to surf VK invisible from Android using third-party applications. But there is another way that does not require installing anything on your phone.

For iPhone

Among iPhone owners, one of the most popular applications that allow you to hide your status is VFeed (however, it can also be used on Android).

This is a full-fledged application that you also install on your gadget and can use all its features, including hiding your online status. To enable “stealth mode”, you just need to activate the switch with the corresponding inscription in the main menu of the application.

With VFeed, you can not only hide your online presence, but also customize the appearance of your panels, change themes, and log in from multiple accounts at once. Overall, the application is very convenient and is distributed free of charge (however, this version has advertising, which you can get rid of by purchasing paid VFeed).

The “Invisible” function in other services for VKontakte

The store for Android devices has a fairly extensive range of programs for the VKontakte social network. Therefore, many people install other applications to use their account based on their preferences.

Invisibility mode is also available in unofficial, but no less popular clients for VKontakte, only in each of them it is enabled differently.

For example, to be offline through the Lynt utility, follow these steps:

Launch VK, in the left pop-up menu, stop at the Settings section;
In the window that appears, click on the main parameters;
Find the line “Mark as online” and uncheck the box if you want to anonymously.

In a client called Polyglot, to access the stealth mode you need to do the following:

Enter the program, select the main menu by sliding the screen to the left;
Open the settings, find the desired function in general configurations, and activate it.

There are two more applications that are popular among users, they also provide the above-mentioned method of operation.

One of them is Kate Mobile, in which it is activated in this way:

Launch VK, the options section, find the Settings item;
Open the Online item, after which a window will appear in front of you to choose one of two ways of working - be online, or, if possible, be offline. It is logical that we should focus on the second option.

No less popular is Amberfog for VKontakte, where “Invisibility” is activated very simply:

Go to the utility settings through the main menu;
Find the General Settings section, where you will see Stealth Mode, launch it.

The “Invisible” mode is very convenient if you want to quietly “surf” the pages of the VK social network without attracting attention to yourself. It will come in handy when you want to avoid communication and not appear on the list of “those present” once again. As you can see, turning it on is very simple, the process does not require special knowledge and will take very little time.

An effective way to hide visiting time on VK

Many people do not like the function that appeared several years ago, which makes it possible to find out the time of your last visit to the VKontakte website. Not every person wants others to know about it. Therefore, today the question of how to hide visiting time in VK is very relevant. In this material we will talk about the most effective ways to do this from a mobile device, as well as from a computer. You will also learn about the features of hiding visiting hours.

Everyone needs to avoid online mode and stay in the shadows

We have all been using the VKontakte social network for several days, of course everyone uses it differently. Some people spend most of their time on VK, texting with friends, some listen to music from popular public sites, some play flash games all day, and some read the news and watch videos.

However, there are certain desires about functionality that unite us, for example: we all want to view guests logged into our profile. Many users want to hide the Online inscription from the upper right part of the Vk network interface, and some are even thinking about hacking their account in order to read other people’s messages and have repeatedly entered the corresponding query into the search engine.

Other ways to remove online from your computer

Browsers have extensions that block the return transmission of packets, which allows you to freely use the social network. However, this method almost does not work now.

Firefox browser

There is a special VKfox add-on that includes incognito mode. It allows you to surf VK anonymously. When you comment and send a message, the status will immediately change.

Opera

In the application store you can find about 20 programs for the social network.

You can also hide activity from friends using the settings of the browser itself:

Go to the “Network” section.
Uncheck the box next to “Enable automatic redirection”.

How to be invisible in VK?

Even if you just came to like or repost, then you are already shining online on VKontakte. The problems associated with this were described above - let's try to eliminate them from life together. Now, if we want to communicate, then “online” we will show ourselves. And if you’re here on business, then there’s absolutely no need for outside communication.

There are simple ways to stay hidden, but at the same time be in your account, calmly watch the news, or even still communicate, but only with the closest, most understanding people.

You can hide using the VKontakte network itself

First, let's look at a way to hide the online status of VKontakte, which the social network itself provides.

It’s enough just to carry out the following steps sequentially:

Log in to the site.
Go further to the personal messages page.
Then do not move on the page and leave it inactive for about 15-20 minutes.

The result will be as follows: the VKontakte server will close your “online session”, but will not kick you out of your account.

This way you can view individual messages and even reply to them, like them, listen to any music on the social network, etc. But it’s better not to go to your own or someone else’s page - otherwise the mode may change to online again.

The method seems to be quite good, but it has two significant drawbacks:

There is no way to visit other users. And if you do this by accident, then Stirlitz will most likely fail.
For some time, our online mode still “lit up”, i.e. those same aunties with the Bobiks could have attacked. Of course, it is possible and even quite acceptable to simply not answer them, but for them the explanation is then obvious - you never know who could accidentally get into your computer. However, it is still a little unpleasant.

How to log into VK and not be online from your phone
