How To Disable Read Receipt In WhatsApp Group

In this article we will show you how to disable read receipt in WhatsApp group, privacy which is the basic need of humans, we as humans search for it everywhere. For some people maybe it doesn’t mean much, but most of the people crave for it.

Technologies keeps on developing forward and new features in various programs and stuff just keep on evolving. WhatsApp which is a mobile application which allows us to chat with our friends and families provides many features.

In this application there is feature which tells us that someone has read the message. Consider, if I have sent a text to someone, so if the receiver opened that text message then it will show a blue tick on my WhatsApp and if the text is only sent and the other person hasn’t read the text then it will only show double tick. This feature is known as ‘Read Receipts’.

Some people don’t like this feature, they don’t want people to know that they have read the text message sent to them. So people can simply just turn that feature off. Even if some one opens that text message, the blue tick will never appear on the sender’s WhatsApp.

It is useful in many scenarios, consider, you are chatting with somebody on WhatsApp about something important and a third person sends a text to you and you open it by mistake, as you were chatting about something important with someone before this you will go back to that chat and continue chatting, in this case if you have ‘Read Receipts’ ON then the third person will receive the blue tick and will wonder why haven’t you replied to their text even after you opened it, they might even think that you are rude.

So, to avoid this type of situation one must turn off that feature. One might also use this in a professional manner, like if somebody is a professional photographer, so that person can’t afford to turn ON this feature because professional photographer will have many DM’s regarding his work. So if he opens text message of somebody by mistake then blue tick will send off and that might create a problem.
