What does the subscriber hear if they are blocked in WhatsApp - in detail?

If a user is blocked on WhatsApp, the experience varies depending on whether the block was initiated by the user themselves or another person. Here's what each scenario entails:

  1. Blocking Someone Else: When you block another user, they will no longer see your profile picture, status updates, or any changes made to your "About" information. Their messages will not be delivered to you; instead, they will see only a single checkmark on their end, indicating that the message was sent but not received. They will also be unable to call you. However, you can still view their last seen status and online/offline presence if your privacy settings allow it.

  2. Being Blocked by Someone Else: If another user blocks you, you might notice several changes:

    • Messages: When you try to send a message, it will only show one checkmark (indicating the message was sent but not received) instead of two checkmarks (indicating delivery and receipt). You won't receive any read receipts or delivery confirmations.
    • Calls: Attempting to make a call will result in a "ringing" indication, but it won’t connect. The call will not go through.
    • Profile Information: You won't be able to see the other person's last seen status or online/offline presence. Their profile picture and "About" information might also appear blank.
    • Status Updates: You won't receive any updates from their status, although you will still see them in your contact list.
  3. Group Interactions: If the blocker is part of a group with you:

    • Your messages to the group will be delivered and received by all other members except the person who blocked you.
    • You can still call or message the blocker within the group, but they won't receive your calls or messages outside the group context.
