Blue Ticks On Whatsapp: What They Really mean by Barselonia(m): 8:52am On Nov 07, 2014
It is a situation many of us have been in. You send an
important message on WhatsApp and then eagerly wait for
a reply.
One little tick appears to your message. Then two. Then
nothing. Your heart sinks.
The important message has been ignored - or has it?
Up until now many users incorrectly thought the double
check indicated a message had been seen.
Actually it meant that a message had been received by the
handset, not its human owner.
However, WhatsApp's official website has confirmed the
messaging service has a new feature, so you'll know when
someone has definitely read your message.
We introduce to you, the double blue tick!
If a group of people are chatting, the two blue ticks will
appear when everyone in the group has read the message.
Two grey check marks will show up when everyone has
received the message.
You can also find out the time a message was delivered and
read by pressing the message with the double tick - then
holding it for a couple of seconds, before selecting "info".
Other messaging services already have similar types of
notifications to show when someone has seen a message,
like Facebook.
In 2013, instant messaging apps like Apple's iMessenger,
WeChat and Viber overtook the traditional SMS text
message for the first time.
Research company Informer found almost 19 billion
messages were sent on chat apps in 2012, compared to
17.6 million texts.
Newsbeat has contacted WhatsApp for an official response.
But we're still waiting for the double blue tick...
