To add a green check mark in WhatsApp, you need to ensure that your message has been successfully delivered and read by the recipient. This is automatically done by WhatsApp once the recipient opens and views your message.

How to put a green check mark in WhatsApp - in detail?

To place a green checkmark in WhatsApp, you need to follow a few steps that ensure your message is read and acknowledged by the recipient. Here's a detailed guide on how to achieve this:

1. Send a Message: Initiate a conversation by sending a text, image, or any other type of message to the contact or group where you want the green checkmark to appear.

2. Understand the Checkmarks: WhatsApp uses three types of checkmarks to indicate the status of your message:

   • A single grey checkmark means your message has been sent.
   • Two grey checkmarks indicate that your message has been delivered to the recipient's device.
   • Two green checkmarks confirm that your message has been read by the recipient.
3. Wait for Delivery: Once you see two grey checkmarks next to your message, it means the recipient has received the message on their device. However, this does not guarantee that they have read it.

4. Enable Read Receipts (If Necessary): By default, WhatsApp shows read receipts for individual chats and groups. If you or the recipient has disabled read receipts, you will not see the green checkmarks even if the message is read. To ensure read receipts are enabled:

   • Go to WhatsApp Settings.
   • Tap on Account.
   • Select Privacy.
   • Ensure that "Read Receipts" is turned on.
5. Check for Read Status: After the message has been delivered (indicated by two grey checkmarks), wait for the recipient to open and read your message. Once they do, the checkmarks will turn green, indicating that your message has been seen.
6. Acknowledge the Message: If you are the sender and want to ensure that the recipient acknowledges receiving and reading your message, you can ask them to respond with a simple "Yes" or any other confirmation. This step is not mandatory but adds an extra layer of assurance.

By following these steps, you can effectively place a green checkmark in WhatsApp, confirming that your message has been delivered and read by the intended recipient.
