How to enable read receipt feature for a single person on Whatsapp:- The read receipt feature introduced recently by Whatsapp turned out to be a blessing to most of the Whatsapp users. But to some others, it turned out to be the worst nightmare ever. The people in the first category can simply let this feature rule their lives, no issues. Those who belong to the second category can just turn it off and live their lives, again no issues. And if you do not belong to either of the two categories, you are definitely in the third category. Don’t get me? Well, you want the read receipt feature as it helps you know whether your messages have been read by that one special person, but you hate it because it is invading into your privacy. If you turn it off, you don’t get to see that one person’s read receipts as well. And if you leave it on, oh yeah, people keep coming and asking you why you don’t bother to reply them back even after seeing their messages! Here comes our article in for your rescue.

STEP 7

  • As per the group chat policy of Whatsapp, if all the members of a group has seen a message, the grey ticks associated with the message turn to blue. And for group chats, read receipts cannot be turned off. Since our group has only 2 members, if both of you guys have seen the message, the one who sends it and the one who receives it, the ticks turn to blue. Well, this is what you wanted, right? If you want more information on the message, like when it was delivered and when it was read, you can long press on the message and click on the Information icon at the top.
