How do you know if someone has done it?
Without sending them an actual WhatsApp
Can you tell?

If their picture has disappeared you could be blocked, but it could also be that they have deleted your number and have their settings to only show their picture to their contacts.

if you can see them “online” then you’re not blocked.

if you really want to know then I would sit in the chat and see if they ever appear online. If they don’t and their picture is gone, you’re probably blocked

You can't message them if they've blocked you.

Fabpinky · 30/04/2022 22:12

You can send a message but it will only 1 tick

purpleme12 · 30/04/2022 22:15

I'm not going to message so can't find out that way.

The profile picture is grey where it wasn't before
And you can't see the last seen either

Ask someone else to add their number into their phone and if they can see the pic then you’ll know

Yes, that means you're blocked

purpleme12 · 30/04/2022 22:19
