Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – You may be one of those people who sometimes just want to read messages that come to WhatsApp without replying. But if this is discovered by the person sending the chat, it could be a problem because we don't reply even though we have opened the message.
One way you can do this is turn off the blue tick. That way, the sender of the message will not know whether the message has been read or not.
To turn off punctuation, open the Settings menu then click Account. Next, go to Privacy and turn off the Read Receipt option.
If this method is not enough, there are several other methods that you can use. The following is a summary quoted from India Today, Friday (3/5/2024):
1. Activate Airplane Mode
You can turn on or activate airplane mode before opening WhatsApp. This method can avoid updating the status of sent messages.
To activate airplane mode, go to Settings > Airplane Mode > On. After turning it on, please enter the WhatsApp application and read the desired chat.
2. WhatsApp notifications
WhatsApp messages will always appear in the notification bar. This can also be the easiest way to read messages without having to open them.
Just scroll down the notification window. Next, look at the WhatsApp messages that come into it.
Not just a notification bar, pop-up notifications can also be used to read messages without opening them. To activate it, here's how:
- open WhatsApp
- click the button at the top right
- Settings
- Notifications
- Pop up notification and select Always show the pop up
3. Hold Notifications
This method can be done by iPhone users. Namely by clicking and holding the Whatsapp message notification to see the chat preview.
4. Add WhatsApp to the Widget
The widget will display notifications and messages received from WhatsApp. So you can read it directly without opening the application.
To add it, click and hold Home Screen > scroll through the widget list > add WhatsApp widget.
