I blocked someone on WhatsApp, what does it show them - in detail?
When you block a contact on WhatsApp, the immediate effect is that they will no longer be able to see your profile picture, status updates, or any changes you make to your profile information. Additionally, their messages will not be delivered to you, and you will not receive any notifications from them. For them, it may appear as if their messages were sent but never received a confirmation of delivery, represented by the absence of checkmarks next to their messages.
On their end, they might notice that your profile picture has been replaced with a default image, indicating that you have either blocked them or deleted your account. They will also be unable to call you via WhatsApp, and if they try to view your status, it will appear as if it's not available.
It is important to note that blocking someone on WhatsApp does not prevent them from adding you to groups or calling you through other means outside of WhatsApp. However, for the purpose of direct communication within the app, they will be effectively cut off from reaching you until you decide to unblock them.
In summary, blocking a contact on WhatsApp significantly limits their ability to interact with your profile and communicate with you directly within the app.
