WhatsApp, one of the most popular messaging apps worldwide, introduced the blue checkmark feature a few years ago. This feature allows users to know whether their messages have been read by the recipient or not. However, there are times when you may wish to avoid sending those read receipts. In this article, we will discuss some methods to prevent the blue check mark on WhatsApp.

1. Airplane mode: This is a simple and effective way to avoid sending read receipts on WhatsApp. When you receive a message, turn on airplane mode before opening the conversation. After reading the message and exiting the app, make sure to close it from the background as well. Then, you can turn off the airplane mode. By doing this, the blue check mark won’t appear for the sender, as the message won’t be delivered until you reconnect to the internet.

2. WhatsApp Web: Another method to avoid the blue checkmark is by using WhatsApp Web. When you receive a message, open the conversation on your computer using the WhatsApp web feature instead of your mobile phone. This way, you can read the message activating the read receipts on your phone. However, keep in mind that if you have enabled read receipts on WhatsApp Web, this method won’t work. Hence, make sure to disable it in the settings.

3. Disable “Read Receipts” in settings: WhatsApp allows you to disable the read receipts feature directly from its settings. By doing this, you won’t see the blue checkmark when others read your messages, and in turn, others won’t see it when you read theirs. To disable read receipts, follow these steps:
– Open WhatsApp and go to the settings menu.
– Tap on “Account” and then select “Privacy.”
– Look for the “Read Receipts” option and toggle it off.

4. Use the widget preview: If you receive a message on the home screen widget, you can read it without triggering the blue checkmark. Avoid tapping the message directly from the widget; instead, open WhatsApp manually. By doing this, the sender won’t receive a read receipt, as you haven’t opened the message within the app.

5. Disable internet connection: Similar to the airplane mode method, you can disable your internet connection to prevent the blue check mark. When you receive a new message, turn off your Wi-Fi or mobile data before opening the app. After reading the message, force stop WhatsApp from your phone’s settings or app manager. Reactivate your internet connection, and the read receipt won’t be sent.

While these methods can help prevent blue check marks on WhatsApp, it’s important to note that it may affect your overall messaging experience. WhatsApp introduced the feature for a reason, as it allows users to know if their messages have been read. Hence, it’s advisable to use these methods sparingly, considering the expectations of others and maintaining effective communication.
