WhatsApp users can read messages without making the tick blue.
REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA — Users of messaging applications for smartphones WhatsApp has some secret tricks to read text without the sender’s knowledge. This tip can give users extra time to think about the perfect response to a text.
Reported The Sun on Tuesday (24/1/2023), here are three ways to read WhatsApp messages without making the tick blue:
Read through preview
Read when a message appears on the locked phone screen. This feature is known as mode super stealth.
Users can read WhatsApp messages in full by opening a text preview box by holding their finger on the screen.
The trick is not to make the application open completely. That is, the sender will never know whether the message has been read or not.
Turn off the Read Receipts feature
WhatsApp automatically enables this feature for its two billion users. This means that users can see that their message has been read once the two little ticks at the bottom right of the message have turned blue.
To disable this feature, go to Settings in the WhatsApp application. Click Account > Privacy > Read Receipts > then select turn off.
However, there is one small “problem”. This feature doesn’t work for messages, photos, or videos shared in group chats.
Similarly, when someone sends a voice message. You still can’t get rid of the blue check mark even if you have disabled the “read” mark option.
Turn on airplane mode
As soon as you receive a message on your iPhone, activate it airplane mode. Airplane mode cuts off cellphone access to internet networks, including via WiFi. This means that WhatsApp will not record that the message has been read before.
