One gray check mark in WhatsApp, why - in detail?

The single gray checkmark in WhatsApp is a visual indicator that the message has been sent from your device but has not yet been delivered to the recipient's phone. This status signifies that the message has left your outgoing messages queue and is currently being transmitted through WhatsApp's servers towards the intended recipient. However, it does not guarantee that the recipient has received the message, as there could be various factors affecting delivery, such as network connectivity issues or the recipient's phone being turned off. Once the message successfully reaches the recipient's device, the checkmark will turn blue, indicating successful delivery and read status.
