Due to privacy concerns, you can only see the phone number of your friends if you have saved their phone numbers in your contacts. If your friends do not share their phone numbers, the information will only be displayed as *** in the phone number section.
You can quickly and conveniently view your friends’ phone numbers on Zalo using your smartphone by following the instructions below.
Why do Zalo users hide their phone numbers?
Protecting personal information
One of the reasons Zalo users hide their phone numbers is to protect their personal information. The right to protect personal data has become increasingly important in the digital world.
Similar to the Find My iPhone feature, which protects user information and prevents the loss of assets to unauthorized individuals, Zalo also allows users to hide their phone numbers to control access to and use of their personal information. This prevents unwanted access and keeps the phone number safe and private.
Privacy rights
Some Zalo users do not want their phone numbers to be publicly displayed on the platform. The reason is to maintain privacy and prevent personal information from being accessed by others.
Hiding the phone number helps users keep their information shared only with the people they choose.
