If you are blocked on WhatsApp, can you see the history - briefly?
If you are blocked on WhatsApp, you will not be able to view the message history with the person who has blocked you. This restriction is implemented by WhatsApp to protect users' privacy and prevent unwanted contact.
If you are blocked on WhatsApp, can you see the history - in detail?
When a user is blocked on WhatsApp, their ability to view message history with the person who blocked them becomes restricted. This restriction applies to both sent and received messages. Here's what happens in detail:
- Sent Messages: If you attempt to send a message to someone who has blocked you, it will not be delivered. You will see only one checkmark (indicating that the message was sent but not delivered) next to your message. The recipient will not receive any notification about this message and will remain unaware of its existence.
- Received Messages: Any messages or status updates you have previously received from the person who blocked you will still be visible in your chat history. However, you won't be able to see any new messages they send after blocking you. Your conversation with them will appear as one-sided, with only your messages showing up.
- Profile Information: If you try to view the profile information of the person who blocked you, it will no longer be visible. This includes their profile picture, about section, and status updates.
- Calls and Media: You won't be able to make voice or video calls to this contact. Similarly, any media files (like photos, videos, documents) sent by the person who blocked you after they blocked you will not be received.
In summary, while your chat history with the person who blocked you will still be visible in your WhatsApp app, you won't be able to see or receive any new messages from them. This is a privacy feature implemented by WhatsApp to protect users from unwanted communication.
