If I am blocked on WhatsApp, can the other person see that I am online - briefly?
If you are blocked on WhatsApp, the other person will not be able to see your online status. This is because blocking someone prevents them from accessing any information about your activity on the app.
If I am blocked on WhatsApp, can the other person see that I am online - in detail?
If you are blocked on WhatsApp, the other person will not be able to see your online status or any changes in your last seen time. When a user blocks another, the communication between them is essentially severed from both ends. This means that no data about your activity, including whether you are online or have changed your profile picture, can be transmitted to the person who has blocked you.
Here's a detailed breakdown of what happens when you are blocked on WhatsApp:
- Messages: Any messages sent by the blocker will not reach the blocked user, and vice versa. The message status icon (tick marks) next to your sent messages will remain gray, indicating they have not been delivered or read.
- Online Status: The other person cannot see when you are online or your last seen time. This information is not shared with users who have blocked you.
- Profile Picture and About Information: Changes to your profile picture, status, or "About" section will not be visible to the person who has blocked you. Similarly, if the blocker changes their profile picture or status, you won't see those updates either.
- Calls: You cannot make calls (voice or video) to a number that has blocked you, and they cannot make calls to your number either.
- Groups: If you are both part of the same WhatsApp group, the blocker can still see your messages in the group chat. However, you will not be able to see their status updates or changes to their profile picture.
In summary, being blocked on WhatsApp means that certain functionalities and data transmissions between you and the person who has blocked you are restricted. The other person will not be able to see your online status or any other activity-related information.
