What does one checkmark on WhatsApp mean when a message is sent - in detail?
When you send a message on WhatsApp, the appearance of a single checkmark indicates that your message has been successfully delivered to the recipient's device. This means that the message has left your phone and has reached the servers of WhatsApp. However, it does not confirm whether the recipient has actually seen or read the message. The single checkmark is merely an acknowledgment that the message is on its way to the intended recipient. If there are any issues with connectivity or if the recipient's device is turned off, the message will remain in a pending state until delivery can be confirmed. Once the recipient has viewed the message, you will see two checkmarks next to your sent message, indicating successful delivery and receipt.
