How to see who read the message in a WhatsApp group chat - in detail?

To determine who has read your messages in a WhatsApp group chat, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Group Chat:

  2. Locate Your Message:

    • Scroll through the conversation to find the specific message you are interested in.

  3. Check the Delivery Status:

    • Below each message, you will see one or two checkmarks:
      • A single checkmark (✓) indicates that your message has been sent but not yet delivered.
      • Two checkmarks (✓✓) mean your message has been delivered to all recipients.

  4. View the Read Receipts:

    • To see who has read your message, tap and hold on the message until a menu appears.
    • Select "Info" from the menu. This will open a new window displaying detailed information about the message.

  5. Read Receipt Details:

    • In the "Info" window, you will see a list of all participants in the group chat.
    • Each participant's name is followed by a checkmark and the time they read your message. For example:
      • Jane Doe ✓ 10:35 AM
      • John Smith ✓✓ (Sent but not yet delivered)
    • If there is no checkmark next to a participant’s name, it means that person has not yet read the message or their phone settings do not allow read receipts.

  6. Understand Limitations:

    • Read receipts in group chats are only available if the "Read Receipts" feature is enabled on each participant's device.
    • If a participant has turned off read receipts, you will not see a checkmark next to their name.

By following these steps, you can effectively track who has seen your messages within a WhatsApp group chat, enhancing your communication experience and ensuring that important information reaches the intended recipients.
