Why are there only one ticks for sent messages in WhatsApp - in detail?
The single tick mark displayed next to a message on WhatsApp signifies that the message has been successfully sent from your device but has not yet been delivered to the recipient's phone. This initial stage indicates transmission, confirming that your message has left your device and is en route through the internet to WhatsApp's servers. However, it does not guarantee delivery to the intended recipient, as various factors could still prevent the message from reaching its destination. Once the message successfully arrives at the recipient's phone, the tick mark will change to indicate delivery status.
