So, let’s get right into it –
- The single tick – If you press send on your message and you see just a single tick next to the message, then what it means is that the message has been successfully sent from your end but has not yet been received by the recipient.
- The double tick – If the single tick next to your message turns into a double tick, then what it means is that the message has been sent from your end and successfully received by the recipient.
- The blue double tick – If the double tick turns blue, then it means that the recipient has read your message.
In a group chat, the second checkmark appears when all participants in the group have received your message. Two blue checkmarks appear when all participants in the group have read your message.
Whatsapp also allows you to disable the blue tick feature and if your recipient has enabled this, then the normal grey double tick will also indicate the read status, but in such cases, there is no real way to know whether the recipient has read the message or not, unless he/she responds to it.
If you do not have Whatsapp on your device, you can download it from the longs below.
