WhatsApp is undoubtedly one of the most popular messaging platforms worldwide, allowing users to connect and communicate easily. However, there may be circumstances where you need to block someone for various reasons. Whether it’s an annoying spammer or an individual you no longer want to interact with, blocking them on WhatsApp can bring you peace of mind. In this guide, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of blocking a person on WhatsApp.

Step 1: Open WhatsApp

Firstly, ensure WhatsApp is installed on your device and launch the app.

Step 2: Open the Chat

Find the chat of the person you wish to block. This can be an individual or group chat.

Step 3: Access Contact Info

Within the chat, tap on the contact’s name or phone number at the top of the conversation to access their contact information.

Step 4: Block the Contact

Scroll down the contact info page until you find the “Block” option and tap on it.

Step 5: Confirm Block

A confirmation message will appear, asking if you want to block the contact. Confirm your decision by tapping on “Block” again.

Step 6: Block and Delete or Cancel

You will then be presented with two options: “Block & Delete” or “Cancel.” Choose “Block & Delete” to not only block the contact but also remove them from your contacts list. If you only want to block without deleting the contact, select “Cancel.”

Step 7: Blocked Successfully

Once you have made your choice, WhatsApp will display a message indicating that the contact has been successfully blocked. You will no longer receive messages, calls, or any other form of communication from the blocked contact.

What happens when you block someone on WhatsApp?

Blocking a person on WhatsApp has several important implications:

  • You won’t receive any messages or calls from the blocked contact.
  • Your “Last Seen” timestamp and online status will no longer be visible to them.
  • You won’t see any updates or changes made by the blocked contact to their profile picture, status, or “About” section.
  • The blocked contact will not be notified that they have been blocked, but they may realize it when they can no longer see your profile information or send you messages.

Can a blocked person still see my profile?

No, once you block someone on WhatsApp, they won’t be able to access your profile information. Your profile picture, “About” section, and status will no longer be visible to them.

How do I unblock a person on WhatsApp?

If you decide to give someone another chance or unblock them for any reason, the process is straightforward:

  • Open WhatsApp and go to the “Settings” menu.
  • Select “Account” and then “Privacy.”
  • Scroll down to find and tap on “Blocked Contacts.”
  • You will see a list of contacts you have blocked. Select the person you want to unblock.
  • Tap on “Unblock” to reverse the block and regain access to the contact.

Blocking a person on WhatsApp is an effective way to avoid unwanted contacts and regain control over your messaging experience. Remember, it’s your right to decide who you want to interact with on the platform. Just follow these simple steps, and you’ll be able to block and unblock contacts with ease.
