If there is one checkmark in WhatsApp, what does it mean when sending - in detail?
If you see a single checkmark next to your message on WhatsApp, it indicates that the message has been successfully sent from your device and is currently in transit to the recipient's device. This initial checkmark does not provide any information about whether the message has been delivered or read by the recipient; it merely confirms that your message has left your device and is on its way through WhatsApp's servers.
To further clarify, here are the key stages of message delivery status in WhatsApp:
- Single Checkmark (Sent): This indicates that your message has been sent from your device but has not yet reached the recipient's device. At this stage, the message is still in transit and may be waiting to be delivered due to various factors such as network connectivity issues or the recipient's phone being turned off.
- Two Checkmarks (Delivered): Once the message reaches the recipient's device successfully, you will see two checkmarks next to your message. This confirms that the message has been delivered to the recipient's phone, although it does not guarantee that the recipient has seen or read the message.
- Two Blue Checkmarks (Read): When the recipient opens the chat and views your message, you will see two blue checkmarks next to the message. This indicates that the message has been successfully delivered and read by the recipient.
