If I deleted WhatsApp on my phone, what will other subscribers see - briefly?
If you delete WhatsApp from your phone, other subscribers will no longer be able to send you messages or calls through the app. However, they can still see your profile picture and status if you had any set before deleting the app.
If I deleted WhatsApp on my phone, what will other subscribers see - in detail?
If you decide to delete WhatsApp from your phone, the visibility of your account and its status to other subscribers will depend on several factors. Here is a detailed breakdown of what other users might see:
- Account Status: When you delete WhatsApp from your device, your account remains active on WhatsApp's servers unless you manually decide to delete the account entirely. Other subscribers will continue to see you as online or offline based on whether you are using WhatsApp on another device.
- Profile Information: Your profile picture, status updates, and other information will remain visible to your contacts until you choose to change them or delete your account permanently. If you reinstall WhatsApp, all this data will be restored as long as it is backed up.
- Last Seen and Online Status: Other subscribers will see the last time you were active on WhatsApp, which may be updated if you log in from another device. However, if you are not using WhatsApp at all, your status will reflect that you are offline.
- Messages and Chats: Any messages or chats sent to you will still be delivered as long as your phone number is registered with WhatsApp. You can access these messages if you reinstall the app on the same device or log in from another device using the same phone number.
- Group Memberships: If you are a member of any groups, your profile will remain visible to other group members. However, if the group administrator decides to remove you due to inactivity, they have that option.
- Calls and Notifications: You won't receive WhatsApp calls or notifications on the device where you deleted the app. If someone tries to call you, it will show as unavailable.
In summary, deleting WhatsApp from your phone does not immediately affect what other subscribers see about your account. Your profile and status updates remain visible unless you manually change them or delete your account entirely. However, you won't be able to send or receive messages on the device where the app is deleted until you reinstall it.
