If you want to keep your configs as they are, viewing them is still possible.
it’s possible for you to start by swiping down from the notification bar.
If you only have one message, it will be easy to see.
You should be able to read it.
Youll even see options to replay or mark the message as read.
Each message will have an arrow to the right of it.
The app is free and wont bombard you with ads.
Itll divide the WhatsApp messages into different sections, such as text, attachments, and downloads.
But one thing to remember is that it wont show you the images if WhatsApp doesnt download them automatically.
To save storage space, some users decide to download the media manually.
And, if you dont, you might get some complaints later.
I mentioned earlier that as soon as you open WhatsApp, they will know youre online.
Lets start by disabling the online feature.
To do this, tap on thedots at the top rightand choose theSettingsoption.
Tap onPrivacy, followed byLast seen and Privacy(it will be the first on the list).
At the bottom is where it’s possible for you to change the online status.
By doing this, the online option wont appear even if youre reading other messages.
Youll need to tap on the dots at the top right of the apps main page and then chooseSettings.
Once in options, go toPrivacyand toggleoff the Read receiptsoption.
Youll know that the message has been delivered because there will be two checkmarks.
If you only see one, the message hasnt reached their unit.
A clock symbol beside the message indicates an error and that the sending is in progress.
Turning off the read receipts in individual chats means your message wont have a time stamp.
WhatsApp will show you the time you sent the message, and the recipient read it.
Turning read receipts off also hides your name from appearing on the seen list for a status.
The other person doesnt have a way of knowing unless you tell them.
The good news is that turning off the blue checkmarks wont affect how you get your messages in groups.
So you’re able to say goodbye to posting if you turn this feature off.
The time stamp rule applies to voice messages.
Even if you put something on your status before you turn it off, the rule will still apply.
You canmessage yourself on WhatsApp.
Send the audio message to yourself and listen to it there, not on the other persons open chat.
To add the widget, long-press on an ample enough space where the widget would go.
If the widget turns out to be too small, you’re able to always adjust it later.
Tap on the widgets option and swipe down to the WhatsApp section.
As soon as you release it, youll notice that the widget will have some dots around it.
Drag these dots so you could adjust the size of the widget.
