This How.com.vn teaches you how to find out if someone has blocked and deleted you on WhatsApp for iPhone and iPad. Though there’s no tool to help you know for certain, these steps will teach you the most common signs of blocking.
Steps
Open WhatsApp. It’s the green icon containing a chat bubble with a phone receiver inside. You’ll typically find it on the home screen.
Tap Chats. It’s at the bottom of the screen. This displays a list of your WhatsApp conversations.Advertisement
Look for the profile photo of the person who may have deleted you. If you’ve been blocked, the profile picture will only be a silhouette. It is possible, however, that the person just removed their profile photo.
Tap the person’s name in the Chats list. This opens the conversation with that person.
Send the person a message. A gray check mark will appear, indicating that your message was sent. Typically, when the person receives the message, you’ll see two check marks instead of one—if the second check mark never appears, the person may have blocked you.- The second check mark won’t appear until the person is online to receive your message. If you’re not sure that the person’s been online, ask someone else who is also friends with that contact.
Look for the “Last Seen” info. This information appears beneath the person’s name at the top of the chat. If you don’t see the amount of time it’s been since this contact last logged in, they may have removed and/or blocked you.
Ask the person directly. The only surefire way to find out if you've been blocked and deleted is to confirm with that person. Try sending them a message using another platform or giving them a call.Advertisement
