"I need to track my ex’s WhatsApp online status, but I don’t have her number saved. It’s a bit tricky without an external tool. I need a reliable, free tool to monitor their status without invading privacy.!"

Staying connected is easier than ever, and tracking tools have made it even easier. However, certain restrictions can make it challenging to monitor the online activity of someone you're curious about. One everyday issue users face is tracking the online status of their ex-partners whose number is not saved in their contacts. It is especially problematic for casual monitoring of your desired people and business tracking.

Although this limitation exists due to privacy policies, it also puts your desired people at risk. To solve this problem, specialized tools allow tracking the online activity of others. So, this guide will discuss the best tool that provides a workaround to track WhatsApp's online status with unsaved contacts.
