WhatsApp already allows you to hide the double blue check on Android
In WhatsApp they have taken some time after criticism, but they have already brought the solution to users who hate double blue check At least for those who use a device Android And a new update already allowsdeactivate this reading indicator that finally made effective the knowledge that the interlocutor had not only received the message, but that had gone through the conversation to read it
This new and more than expected option comes through an update of WhatsApp for the platform Android Thus, it now has version 2.11.459, a new version that seems to introduce only this feature as the only novelty. In this way, anyone who wishes can now deactivate the double blue check or read confirmation with a simple gesture to prevent other contacts from knowing if the user Have you read the last message or not? Of course, in return you have to pay a small price
And that is, as indicated just below the option Read confirmation, if the user decides to disable this feature,you won't be able to see the blue double check of other contacts either A fairly accurate measure of justice or karma that will prevent that some users can take advantage of it and others cannot.With this, whoever decides to want to know if other contacts have read their messages, will offer the same option so that the rest of the people can know it.
The only thing to do to deactivate the double blue check is to access WhatsApp and display the menu. Entering Settings, just move to the Account Info section, where the menu Privacy Once here, you just have to uncheck the option Read confirmation A point to Keep in mind that this deactivation is not retroactive That is, old messages already seen by contacts will keep the double blue check , but from the moment of its deactivation, new messages will remain with the double gray check once they are delivered.
With this, it will be possible to avoid the discussions and problems that, supposedly, this measure would have introduced.Although, although it seems that the spirits have calmed down after the surprise of its introduction, many will decide to avoid revealing when they have read the messages. And it is that, by deactivating this option, also prevents knowing the specific time at which the user accessed the conversation to read the message
The funny thing is that this update does not have any new features apart from this long-awaited option. In addition, remarkable is the lack of translation of the message which indicates that, by deactivating the read confirmation, the user will not be able to see the double blue check of other users. All of this, together with the recently discovered vulnerability in the application that would allow a conversation to be saturated with a single message, suggest that it is a forced update, mainly intended to solve this problem rather than offer the commented option to deactivate the double blue checkOf course, WhatsApp, as always, has not confirmed anything about it.
In any case, users of WhatsApp on the platform Androidyou can now deactivate the double blue check Simply download free the latest version of the app via Google Play
