Being blocked on WhatsApp can be a painful experience, especially if you use the app to interact with people daily. While WhatsApp doesn't explicitly state why someone has been blocked, there are telltale signs that indicate you've been blocked.

Here are the 8 signs to check:

  • Open WhatsApp and check the user's profile.
  • Check if the user's status is visible.
  • Try to open the chat window with the user.
  • Check if the user's last seen is visible.
  • Send a message to the user and check for delivery and read receipts.
  • Check if the user's profile picture is visible.
  • Check if the user's status updates are visible.
  • Try to see the user's online status.

By following these steps, you can determine if someone has blocked you on WhatsApp.
