If I am blocked in WhatsApp, will my messages be delivered - briefly?
If you are blocked on WhatsApp, your messages will not be delivered to the person who has blocked you. Instead, you will see a single check mark next to your message, indicating that it was sent but not delivered.
If I am blocked in WhatsApp, will my messages be delivered - in detail?
If you are blocked by someone on WhatsApp, the delivery status of your messages can change significantly. Here's a detailed breakdown of what happens:
- Message Delivery: When you send a message to someone who has blocked you, it will not be delivered to their phone. The message will remain undelivered indefinitely until they unblock you or you delete the chat.
- Last Seen and Online Status: You won't be able to see the last seen or online status of the person who has blocked you. Similarly, they won't be able to see yours either.
- Profile Picture and About: If the person who blocked you updates their profile picture or "About" section, you won't receive any notifications about these changes.
- Read Receipts: You won't receive read receipts (blue ticks) for your messages. This is because your messages are not being delivered to the recipient's phone.
- Group Chats: If you are both in a group chat, they can still block you within that specific group. However, this doesn't affect your ability to send messages to other members of the group. They will also be able to see your messages within the group chat unless they leave the group.
- Calls: You won't be able to call them using WhatsApp Calling. The call will fail and you won't receive any notification that it did so.
It's important to note that being blocked does not prevent WhatsApp from encrypting your messages end-to-end. This means that even if the message is undelivered, it remains private and secure between you and the recipient.
In conclusion, when someone blocks you on WhatsApp, your messages will not be delivered to their phone. You won't receive any read receipts or see their last seen/online status either. However, group chats and message encryption remain unaffected unless the person leaves the group or stops using WhatsApp altogether.
