What does the conversation in WhatsApp look like if you are blocked - briefly?
If you've been blocked on WhatsApp, any messages you send to that person will only show one check mark (indicating it was sent but not delivered), and you won't be able to see their profile picture or status updates anymore.
What does the conversation in WhatsApp look like if you are blocked - in detail?
If you've been blocked by someone on WhatsApp, the appearance and functionality of your conversation with that contact will change significantly. Here’s a detailed breakdown of what to expect:
-
Profile Picture: The profile picture of the person who blocked you will no longer be visible. Instead, you might see a default icon or a blank space where their picture used to be.
-
Status Updates: You won't be able to see any updates from that person's status. This includes text, photos, and videos they post in their WhatsApp Status.
-
Last Seen Timestamp: The "last seen" timestamp will no longer update for the contact who blocked you. It will remain frozen at the time when they last viewed your message before blocking you.
-
Message Delivery and Read Receipts: When you send a message to someone who has blocked you, it won't be delivered. Instead of seeing the checkmarks that indicate delivery (one gray checkmark) or read receipt (two gray checkmarks), your messages will only show one gray checkmark, indicating that the message was sent but not delivered.
-
Calls: You won’t be able to make voice or video calls to the person who blocked you. The call button will appear as unavailable or grayed out.
-
Group Interactions: If you are both part of a group, you can still see each other's messages within that group. However, they have the option to mute or restrict your messages in the group settings.
-
No Notifications: You won’t receive any notifications when the person who blocked you comes online or changes their status.
-
Contact Information: The contact information for the person who blocked you will still be visible in your contacts list, but interacting with them (e.g., sending messages, making calls) will be restricted as described above.
-
No Indication of Being Blocked: WhatsApp does not notify users when they have been blocked. You may only become aware of it through the changes outlined above.
These changes are designed to respect the privacy of the person who has blocked you, ensuring that you can no longer see their updates or interact with them directly on the platform.
