What Happens When You Block and Unblock Someone on WhatsApp?

The ability to block and unblock someone on WhatsApp has become an important part of the app’s user experience. Blocking someone means that the person you have blocked will not be able to contact you or see your profile information. Unblocking someone will allow them to contact you and view your profile information again.

When you block someone, they will no longer be able to send you messages, voice or video call you, add you to group chats, or see any of your profile information such as your status message or profile picture. They also won’t be able to view messages sent in group chats which they are a part of while they are blocked. When you unblock someone, all of these privileges are restored.

It is important to note that when you block someone on WhatsApp, this does not delete any of their messages from your chat history. The messages still remain in the chat but are hidden from view. If you decide to unblock the person later on, all of their messages will reappear in the chat history.

What Happens When You Delete a Contact?

When a contact is deleted from WhatsApp, they will no longer appear in your contacts list and they will not be able to message or call you until they are added as a contact again. This means that if you delete a contact and then decide to unblock them later on, they will need to be added as a contact again before being able to send messages or make calls.

Conclusion: Blocking and unblocking someone on WhatsApp is an important feature for users who wish to control who can and cannot contact them on the app.

When blocked, the person cannot message or call you nor can they view any of your profile information such as your status message or profile picture. When unblocked, all privileges are restored and the person can once again message and call you as well as view your profile information. It is important to remember that deleting a contact does not automatically unblock them; if a user wishes to unblock them later on, they must first be added back as a contact again before being able to do so.
