If you have noted when using the app, once you send a message, you will note a grey tick below the text.Īfter some time, another tick will be added and they will remain grey in color. One of the most important features to have been added is the delivery and read receipt system. This one is going to help you understand the ticks on WhatsApp. What do they are? What do they mean? Can you turn them off? All these questions may have an answer for those who have already been using WhatsApp for a long time.

* Recipient’s device is offline (no internet connection) If your message is stuck with this one grey tick, there are several reasons : After the message delivered to the recipient, it turn to double grey ticks. And now it is the server’s turn to deliver the message to the recipient. One tick – means message is sent (to the Whatsapp server) but still not delivered.Īt this state, the message has moved from your mobile device to the server.as soon as the message reach to the server, the clock icon will turn into one tick. If the clock icon keep appear for quite some time, you should check your internet connection. It simply indicate that something is wrong somewhere in the network connection. Sometimes the clock icon keep appear and refuse to go away. For the most cases, this happens due to Internet connection issue or the network connection is slow.

The clock icon means that the application is trying to send the message to the server of Whatsapp. Right after you send the message on whatsapp, sometime you may see a clock icon at the next of the message (Note: if you have fast network connection, the clock icon may not appear). The Clock Icon – means the message has not yet left your mobile device.The 4 states in whatsapp status message :

Whatsapp server keeps the message only for 30 days in its database when it is not delivered to the receiver (when the receiver is not active on WhatsApp for 30 days). Then the server repeatedly requests the receiver acknowledge receipt of the message.As soon as the message is acknowledged, the server removes the message which means the message is no longer available in database of server. When a user sends a message, the message firstly travels to the WhatsApp server where it is stored. WhatsApp is using a ‘store and forward’ mechanism for exchanging messages between two users. But many people apparently not aware of this feature and conversely,for those who already know, sometime they don’t want to have the feature that the message has been read. WhatsApp check marks – Recently WhatsApp introduced the new featured that showed check marks next to messages to indicate the status of the message which the sender able to know if the message has been sent, delivered or read already.
