How to make WhatsApp messages not delivered - in detail?

To ensure that a message on WhatsApp does not get delivered, users can employ several methods that manipulate the app's functionality or exploit its vulnerabilities. It is important to note that using such techniques may violate WhatsApp's terms of service and could potentially lead to account suspension or other penalties. However, for informational purposes, here are some detailed methods:

1. Using Airplane Mode:

   • Open the WhatsApp app on your device.
   • Compose a message to the recipient but do not send it yet.
   • Turn on Airplane Mode, which disables all wireless connections including Wi-Fi and mobile data.
   • Close the WhatsApp app completely (not just minimizing it).
   • Open the app again while still in Airplane Mode. The message will fail to send due to lack of connectivity.
   • Delete the unsent message from the chat.
   • Turn off Airplane Mode and continue using WhatsApp normally.

2. Blocking the Recipient:

   • Before sending a message, block the recipient from your contact list.
   • Compose and send the message. Since the recipient is blocked, they will not receive it.
   • After some time, unblock the recipient. The message will remain undelivered on your end.
   • Note that this method might alert the recipient to your action since they may notice a change in their contact list.

3. Using a Secondary Device or Number:

   • Use a secondary device or SIM card to send messages.
   • Compose and send the message from this secondary account.
   • Once sent, immediately delete the message from your chat history on both devices. This ensures that the primary account remains clean and the message does not appear as delivered.
   • Ensure that the secondary device or number is not linked to your main WhatsApp account.

4. Using Third-Party Apps:

   • There are third-party applications available that claim to intercept or delay message delivery on WhatsApp.
   • These apps often work by manipulating the app's API or exploiting vulnerabilities in the system.
   • However, using such apps is risky and can compromise your account security. Additionally, WhatsApp frequently updates its security measures, rendering many of these third-party solutions ineffective over time.

5. Changing Device Settings:

   • Some users report that altering device settings such as date and time can prevent message delivery.
   • Set the date and time on your device to a future date (e.g., one year ahead).
   • Compose and send the message. Since the current date and time do not match the system settings, WhatsApp may fail to deliver the message.
   • After sending, change the device settings back to the correct date and time.

6. Using Modified Versions of WhatsApp:

   • Some users opt for modified versions of WhatsApp (e.g., GBWhatsApp or YoWhatsApp) that offer additional features not available in the official app.
   • These modifications sometimes include options to hide or delay message delivery.
   • However, using such modified apps is against WhatsApp's terms of service and can lead to account suspension.
