Can I see someone's WhatsApp photo without being a contact?
Many users doubt that if they can see another person's photo that is not added to their mobile contacts; the immediate answer is that you have to add it to find out.
If you added the contact and go to their profile but you don't see their photo, it means that this user's profile photo is not available to be seen by all the public using the app. In other words, if a person has in their WhatsApp settings that their profile photo can only be seen by their contacts; that is, you will not see it if this user has not programmed your phone number.
But, in case the user has the option in his WhatsApp settings that all the public will see his photo; this means you can see their photo if you have added this contact on your mobile.

- Then go to the Account option
- Then enter the privacy
- There you will see the "profile photo" option
- The option that says "None" must be checked
- Select if you want everyone to see it or just your contacts and that's it
