If you’re wondering whether you’ve been blocked on WhatsApp, here are some signs that could indicate this:
- Last Seen/Online Status: If you can no longer see the contact’s “Last Seen” or “Online” status in the chat window, it could be a sign. However, some people might have this setting turned off for privacy reasons, so it isn’t a definitive indicator.
- Profile Picture: If you can no longer see the contact’s profile picture, it might mean you’re blocked, but again, they could have removed it or changed privacy settings.
- Message Delivery Status:
- One check mark (✓): This means the message has been sent but not yet delivered to the recipient’s device.
- Two check marks (✓✓): This indicates that the message was delivered.
- Two blue check marks (✓✓): This means the message was read. If your messages always show just one gray check mark (✓) and never change to two, it might mean you’ve been blocked.
- Calls Won’t Go Through: If you try to make a WhatsApp call to them, and it doesn’t go through (just keeps ringing or fails immediately), it could be another sign of being blocked.
- Group Chats: If you’re in a group chat with the person, and you suddenly can’t see their messages, or they don’t appear to be receiving your messages, they may have blocked you.
Note: While these signs are often associated with being blocked, none of them is 100% conclusive. The person could have changed their privacy settings or have network issues affecting message delivery.
