Program through which to stay in contact. VK offline: be “offline” always and everywhere! Additional client function on Android and iOS

Let's figure it out how to log into VK and be offline, from a computer or phone.

What is this for?

The need to hide your presence on a social network may be due to various reasons. Most often, people do not want to make it clear that they visited their page to their interlocutors and friends (see. ). This allows you to protect yourself from unnecessary messages.

How to be offline on VK when logging in from a computer

There are a large number of software clients for using contact. Some of them have a function that allows you to hide your presence and set your status to offline. I have already done a review on this topic -.

Now I want to show you a method that is based on using a special website. You will find it at the link:

https://apidog.ru/auth.php

In the login form, you must enter your username and password that you use to log into VK. In the third field, indicate which device you are trying to log in from. Next, click the “Login” button.

If all the data was entered correctly, you will be asked to fill out a captcha (see).

Great, you will be taken to the offline version of the contact. In the main window you will find all the main functions, as well as various add-ons.

If you now try to access your page from any other account, you will not see the online status. And this is exactly what we need.

For this purpose we will use the VK feed application.

Download and install. After launching the application for the first time, you will see the start window.

Everything is ready. Now you will work offline. And no one will see you online. You can check it out. Ask anyone to visit your page. He will see the following picture.

Most users want to log into VK and perform certain actions there in completely invisible mode. In the standard settings of VK there is no such function, even for a fee there is no way to activate the invisibility mode, sometimes you just want to quietly watch movies and listen to music without being distracted by messages. Then there is a need to visit VKontakte offline from a computer; this is an eternal question for busy users. Despite the absence of such settings, there are several options for visiting VK incognito from a PC and from a phone.

For people who are interested in the question of how to remain invisible online for as long as possible, a variety of online resources can help. These are special additions to standard browsers. It is also acceptable to use other tools that provide the ability to appear on the VK page as offline. This is an ideal opportunity to perform the necessary actions on a social network and remain invisible.

Using the APIdog resource, you can visit VK in stealth mode. It features unique advanced API functionality. Visiting VK incognito is one of the functions of the resource. To take full advantage of the site, you will need to do the following:

Go to the official website of the application.
Enter your personal account information.
Click “Login”.
After getting to the VK page, you need to click on “Settings”.
Check the box next to “Enable automatic dialog updates.” At the same time, you need to check that the words confirming the online mode are not checked.

After about 15 minutes of actions on this site, the status of the user who accessed it via phone becomes invisible. A person can be in the VKontakte application, and be displayed to everyone around him as being offline. So you can simply log into VK offline from your computer. To avoid accidentally leaving, you should not make notes on the wall, change photos or upload video or audio.

How to use VK offline from your phone?

There is another application that provides this function from your phone. This is a special VK Inviz utility that allows you to completely hide your presence on VK. It was developed specifically for Googe Chrome and can be used on a PC and smartphone.

To use the full functionality of the application, you will need to go to the application section from this browser and start the installation.

Afterwards the transition to the installed application is made. After this, the “VK Inviz” icon appears on the panel. All you have to do is click on the name, enter your personal data and go to the VK website, where you can be in incognito mode.

If you don’t trust the Apidog service, which provides the opportunity to get invisible status a few minutes after logging in, you can download VK Inviz for Google Chrome. This program allows you to log into your account and use VK invisibly.

It works effectively and thanks to this it has earned a huge number of positive reviews from users who use it.

Conclusion

Conclusion

Invisibility on VKontakte allows you to remain offline on the site, using almost all of its features. You can enable stealth mode in the official VK application and clients from third-party developers, but you cannot be sure that it will work.

Invisibility in the official client

On iPhone, the operation is performed in a similar way, since the Android application works the same as the client on iOS. The answer to the question of how to sit offline has been found - the VKontakte invisible mode hides your real status, showing when you were last online.

Invisibility in third-party applications

Previously, it was possible to be on VK offline in programs from third-party developers - Kate Mobile for Android and v Feed for iOS. The problem is that in April 2017, VK developers turned off invisibility. So now you can download a VK application like v Feed for free, but it will be of little use - you won’t be able to use your phone offline on VKontakte.

Previously, the user downloaded Feed or Kate Mobile, set the “Be offline if possible” mode and did not worry that other users would notice that he was online. Now in the Kate Mobile settings you can also set the status to “Offline”, but it will not work. Incognito mode on VKontakte on Android via Kate Mobile is activated as follows:

Open client settings.
Click on the "Online" section.
Click on “Online” again.
Select the status “Be offline if possible.”

Now the invisible feature for the VKontakte social network for Android in Kate Mobile does not work. No advice helps, such as “don’t open your profile, but only go to the news - the Feed section.” The VKontakte developers have removed the very ability to hide the real status, so you won’t be able to download the invisible one. The developers of v Feed and Kate Mobile have already confirmed the disabling of the option, so the questions of how to be offline and how to sit on VK and remain invisible received a clear answer - no way.

This is not the case when a separate VK option does not work. VK invisibility on Android applications is disabled intentionally so that users come out of the shadows. So you no longer have to wonder how to make yourself invisible, whether you should only sit in the “Feed” section with news - in any case, your friends will see that you are on the site. All that remains is to explain to them that the “Online” status does not mean that you are ready to communicate and respond to messages immediately.

Many people ask this question - how to be offline on VKontakte. There is no clear answer to such a question, because there are no ways to be offline always and everywhere. You cannot press the red button and become offline or go into invisible mode, such as in Mail.ru Agent for My World. The only way to hide from your friends without leaving the expanses of your favorite social network is to adhere to certain restrictions, without crossing which you can hide your presence on the VKontakte social network.

There are several ways to protect yourself from the “Online” status. I will try to tell you in more detail about each of them, but the choice is yours.

Offline via the VKontakte website

Even in the early days, when the social network VKontakte had just appeared, it became clear that the creator had not thought through the problem of invisibility, when a user could disappear from view while remaining on the site. At that time, to view the VKontakte website while offline, it was necessary to leave the users’ personal pages, not go to your page or the pages of your friends, and then wait about ten minutes. Since online was turned on only when entering personal pages, the site could be used to the fullest, ignoring them, while doing everything possible, for example, reading messages and notes, watching videos, photos or groups, listening to music, playing applications and things like that.

Now the situation has changed dramatically. Most of the actions described above can still be performed without the risk of being online, but it has become much more difficult.

The VKontakte social network is developing every day, constantly introducing some small or major innovations. It is obvious that VKontakte developers do not sit still and regularly get rid of various tricks invented by users and not provided for by the system itself. This conclusion can be drawn based on our example, namely the ability to be offline on VKontakte.

Nowadays, not only login to personal pages includes online, but also banal use of the site. Half of the links and buttons on the VKontakte social network are equipped with anti-offline protection. One click on such a link and you become online. This complicates the usual anti-online trick in that it becomes very difficult to be offline on the site and do something there at the same time. Therefore, especially for this article, understanding the methods of being offline, I poked around a little on the links on the VKontakte website and found out what affects the status and what does not. Check out:

Will affect online:

using the left menu;
viewing your page and the pages of other users;
entering the page with a list of friends (section “my friends”);
viewing photos and photo albums (especially in the “my photos” section);
entering the settings page and changing them;
viewing bookmarks;
viewing the list of communities and the communities themselves.

searching and listening to audio recordings;
search and view videos;
reading messages;
viewing the news feed;
liking your own and other people’s posts;
reposting posts to your page;
entering the documents section and adding documents from the search.

Such are the things. I didn’t check for anything else, I chose the most basic. As you can see, most ordinary actions are revealed by our presence on a social network. And then, in order to be offline, listening to music or adding it to your audio recordings from the search, you need to go to the section with music in advance and become offline, since it is impossible to go to “My audio recordings” without giving yourself away. The same applies to other sections - you will not be able to access their pages while remaining offline, and all because of the anti-offline protection.

In this case, as an option, open tabs with the necessary sections in the browser in advance and never close them. After 10-15 minutes you will be offline and will be able to enjoy all the benefits of open sections. If necessary, listen to music; if not, read messages or watch videos. Not the most tempting option, but, alas, there is no other way to be offline through the social networking site VKontakte.

Offline via APIdog service

APIdog is an unofficial mobile version of VKontakte with nice additional features and other useful features. To go offline using this wonderful site, you just need to log in to it using your username and password. After authorization, your status will not change. If you were offline, you will remain so.

However, sadly, some actions cannot be performed on your account. These are the same restrictions that I mentioned at the very beginning. If you do not adhere to them, the offline status will change to online. To be sure of what I could and couldn't do, I found out through testing what would affect online and what wouldn't. A short list is given below:

Will affect online:

Will not affect online:

reading news and answers;
viewing your page, the pages of friends and communities;
viewing photos and videos;
listening to music;
sending personal messages;
sending posts to the walls of other users and communities;
likes on posts and photographs, both your own and others’;
repost content to your wall;
deleting and adding friends.

I didn’t check the rest of the actions; I highlighted only some of the most basic ones. Isn’t it true that this service is wonderful? Due to the fact that the site is built on VKontakte API methods, you can perform almost any action and remain offline. If you still couldn’t resist and did something that gave you away, alas, the only thing you can do is click on the “Mark me offline” button in the APIdog website settings, which is located at the very bottom of the page, and within a minute you you will find yourself offline again.

Offline via Kate Mobile app for Android

Kate Mobile is one of the most popular unofficial mobile clients for the VKontakte social network. It is an excellent alternative to the official application for Android phones.

Of course, this application has gained wide popularity due to features that are not in the official one. Saving traffic, alternative view of some sections, for example, profile, shortening long news and much more. Well, the main feature of this application, thanks to which, in fact, the application became so popular and was included in this article, is the ability to be in offline mode.

Kate Mobile, just like the APIdog service, is written entirely in the VKontakte API, so the function of changing the status to “online” is optional. For example, the developers of the official application brought the user online when clicking almost any button or link, but in Kate Mobile this function can be disabled and you can be in invisible mode while in the application.

Initially, in the Kate Mobile application the user is online. To fix this, you need to go into the application settings, find the “Online. Be online when the application is running" and change to "Be offline if possible". After which the selected setting will be saved and the next time you launch the application you will always be offline.

Again, as with the APIdog service, the only action that cannot be performed is:

sending posts to your wall.

All other functions will not reveal your online presence, no matter what you do. You can read and send messages, listen to music, view photos, read the news feed and much more.

Conclusion

Well, this concludes the list of methods known to me with which you can be offline in VKontakte. There may be other methods, but they are unlikely to differ from those already given in this article.

If you somewhere found information or a method by which you can supposedly be offline on VKontakte absolutely always, even by sending entries to your wall, most likely this is a hoax, since the analysis of the methods described above showed that sending entries to the wall always leads to the resumption of online.

Not all the methods I described are ideal, and the method through the VKontakte website is absolutely inconvenient, but, unfortunately, there are no ideal methods. You can almost completely hide your presence on the VKontakte social network only with the help of third-party programs or services that are written entirely in the VKontakte API and specifically do not include online (such as APIdog, Kate Mobile).
