WhatsApp is the most common and popular mobile messaging platform. It’s very easy to send messages, photos, and even videos on WhatsApp but what if you’re blocked? Many times users keep sending messages without knowing the fact that the related friend is blocking them on WhatsApp.
However, it’s very simple to find out if someone is blocking you on WhatsApp but still, many of us don’t know how, and due to this reason even after getting blocked by someone, people don’t stop sending messages.
Remember that if someone on WhatsApp blocks you, he/she won’t be able to see your messages. So, it’s very important for you to find out if you’re blocked on WhatsApp by someone so that you can stop sending messages to that person.
How to Find out if Someone Blocked You on WhatsApp
In this article, I’m sharing the 4 simplest methods to know if someone blocked you on WhatsApp. So, have a look at the following ways and check out if you’re blocked.
Method #1: Notice Last Seen Status
If the Last Seen feature of WhatsApp is activated in your profile, it means you will also be able to see other people’s Last Seen status. But if someone blocked you on WhatsApp, the last seen status won’t be visible.
I mean to say if XYZ blocked you on WhatsApp, you won’t be able to see his/her WhatsApp status, and only blank spaces will be seen all the time.
So, if you were previously able to see someone’s last seen status but now only a blank space is showing, it means the person blocked you.
Still, one thing may rebut that blank space means someone blocked you; maybe that person stopped sharing his/her last seen to everyone. So, in this condition, you may also see blank space.
But, no worries if this method doesn’t suit you. There are still many other methods to find out if you’re blocked on WhatsApp by one of your contacts.
Method #2: WhatsApp Profile Photo
If someone blocked you on WhatsApp, it can also be detected by having a look at a person’s profile picture. I mean if you’re blocked by someone, you won’t be able to see his/her profile picture.
Maybe the contact picture of that person saved in your phone will be visible in the place of the WhatsApp profile picture. Or it will be like the person doesn’t set a profile picture.
Method #3: Check if the Message Delivered or Not
If someone blocks you, your messages won’t be delivered to that person. It means you will never see the double tick sign on sent messages.
The read receipt (double tick sign) only displays when the receiver receives the message. If it doesn’t display, it simply means either the user is not using WhatsApp at that time or you’re blocked.
Method #4: Try to Make WhatsApp Call
If someone blocked you, you won’t be able to connect a WhatsApp call with that person. If you try calling that person on WhatsApp, call will automatically end without connecting and you’ll always see the Call End message.

That’s all guys! These 4 are the best and easiest methods to find if someone blocked you on WhatsApp. So, in short, if you’re unable to see the last seen time stamp and profile photo, your messages not delivering and your WhatsApp call is not connecting with that person, it means he/she definitely blocked you on WhatsApp.
It may happen if someone didn’t put profile picture at that time.

It happens with me that for a few hrs I’m unable to see the last seen timestamp and after sometime it’s visible and messages get delivered.
Am I blocked?
