Will someone who deleted WhatsApp still show their status - briefly?
If a user deletes the WhatsApp application from their device, they will no longer be able to view or update their status on the platform. However, their previous status updates may still be visible to other users for a short period until WhatsApp's servers remove the data.
Will someone who deleted WhatsApp still show their status - in detail?
When a user deletes the WhatsApp application from their device, it effectively removes all local data associated with the app, including any cached messages or media. However, this action does not immediately affect the user's status on WhatsApp. The visibility of a user's status is primarily managed by WhatsApp servers and is not solely dependent on the presence of the application on the device.
WhatsApp statuses are stored on the company's servers and can be accessed from any device where the user is logged in with their account credentials. This means that even if a user deletes WhatsApp from one device, their status will still be visible to their contacts who view it from another device. The status updates, such as text, photos, or videos, are synchronized across all devices associated with the same WhatsApp account.
To further explain, when you delete WhatsApp from your phone, your status remains active on the servers until you manually update it or change your privacy settings. Contacts who have recently viewed your status may still see it for a short period after deletion, as there might be some latency in updating the status visibility across all devices.
In summary, deleting WhatsApp from your device does not immediately remove your status from view. Your contacts will continue to see your last updated status until you make changes or delete it manually through another device or by reinstalling the app on your original device.
