What happens if someone blocks me on WhatsApp, what will I see - briefly?
If someone blocks you on WhatsApp, you will no longer be able to see their last seen or online status. Additionally, your messages will only show one checkmark (sent), indicating they have not been delivered.
What happens if someone blocks me on WhatsApp, what will I see - in detail?
If someone blocks you on WhatsApp, there are several changes you might notice in your interaction with their profile and messages. Here is a detailed breakdown of what you will see:
-
Profile Information: You will no longer be able to see the person's last seen or online status. This means that the "last seen" timestamp and the green dot indicating their online presence will disappear from your chat window.
-
Status Updates: You won't be able to view the blocked person's status updates. Their status will appear as blank, and you won't see any new updates they post.
-
Read Receipts: If you send a message to someone who has blocked you, you won't receive read receipts (the double blue checkmarks). This indicates that the person hasn’t seen or received your message. However, you will still see one checkmark, which means your message was sent but not delivered.
-
Message Delivery: Messages you send to the blocked contact won't be delivered. They will remain with a single checkmark (sent), and there won’t be any further confirmation that they were received or read by the recipient.
-
Calls: Both voice and video calls will fail to connect. You won't see the person's profile picture next to their name in your call log, and attempts to reach them will result in a message saying "Call ended" or "Call failed."
-
Group Chats: If you are part of a group chat with the person who blocked you, you will still be able to see their messages and statuses within that group. However, you won't be able to call them or send them direct messages outside of the group.
-
Profile Picture: You might notice that the profile picture of the person who blocked you is no longer visible in your chat window or contact list. It will appear as a default icon or an empty space.
-
About Section: The "About" section in their profile will also be unavailable to you, and you won't be able to see any information they have shared there.
These changes are subtle but indicate that the person has blocked your number on WhatsApp. If you suspect someone has blocked you, these signs can help confirm your suspicions.
