ARE YOU BLOCKED ON WHATSAPP? SIMPLE TIPS TO FIND OUT
Block option
1
WhatsApp allows users to block users on its platform that you no longer wish to receive messages from.
No indicator
2
WhatsApp doesn't notify the user when someone blocks them.
Tell-tale signs
3
However, there are ways that can confirm whether you have been blocked.
Last seen/online status
4
This is the first and the easiest way to find out whether you are blocked on WhatsApp. This is not a definite sign though as the contact may have changed their privacy settings. But this is the one way you can try.
WhatsApp group
5
Try to add the user to WhatsApp group and if you see this message 'you are not authorised to add this contact', that means you have been blocked on the platform.
Call
6
You won't be able to call the user who has blocked you on WhatsApp.
Single tick
7
All the messages that you may send to the person who has blocked you will appear in a single check. mark. If that never changes to double tick, that means the message has never been delivered.
Profile photo
8
If you are blocked by someone on WhatsApp, the user's profile picture will never change to you.
Online status
9
WhatsApp is soon to release a new privacy feature that will allow users to hide their online status from selected contacts. You will also be able to silently leave the group.
