If someone has blocked me on WhatsApp, what happens - briefly?
If someone has blocked you on WhatsApp, you will no longer see their profile picture or status updates. Additionally, your messages to them will remain undelivered and marked with a single checkmark, indicating they haven't been received.
If someone has blocked me on WhatsApp, what happens - in detail?
If someone has blocked you on WhatsApp, several changes will occur in your interactions with that person's account. Here are the details of what happens:
- Message Delivery Status: When you send a message to the contact who has blocked you, you will not see any delivery checkmarks (one gray, one red, or two gray checkmarks) next to your sent messages. This indicates that your message did not reach the recipient and is still pending delivery.
- Profile Picture and Status: You will no longer be able to view the profile picture of the person who blocked you. Additionally, their "Last Seen" status, "Online" status, or any other status updates they share will become unavailable to you. This means you won't know when they were last active on WhatsApp or whether they are currently online.
- Call Functionality: You will not be able to make voice or video calls to the person who has blocked you. If you try to call them, the call will fail to connect and you will see a message indicating that your call did not go through.
- Group Conversations: While you can still view and participate in group conversations if both of you are members, sending messages directly to the person who has blocked you within the group will result in those messages not being delivered. Other group members will be able to see your messages, but the blocked contact will not receive them.
- Contact Information: The contact information for the person who blocked you will remain visible in your contacts list. However, any attempts to interact with them through WhatsApp will be restricted as described above.
- No Notification: You will not receive any notification or alert informing you that you have been blocked by someone on WhatsApp. The changes mentioned above are subtle indicators that might suggest the person has blocked you, but there is no explicit confirmation from WhatsApp itself.
These changes collectively indicate that communication with the blocked contact through WhatsApp is restricted, and any attempts to reach them will not be successful.
