ANYONE with a recent iPhone can read WhatsApp texts without alerting the sender.
Do you know you can read the full WhatsApp message without causing the "blue ticks" to appear for the person who sent you the text.
When reading a text usually causes a blue tick to appear for the sender when using the WhatsApp.
What of if I tell you that iPhone users can read messages freely without triggering these tricks.
Most people trying to avoid "read receipts" simply use the Airplane Mode method, which shuts off data so the sender's WhatsApp won't know you've read a text.
But that method isn't great, because as soon as you turn Airplane Mode off the blue ticks appear – meaning you have to stay offline.
You can also turn off read receipts entirely, but then you won't get to see them from other users, which is frustrating.
How to read WhatsApp texts without triggering blue ticks
This trick only works if you don't have WhatsApp open when the text comes through.
And you also need to ensure you've updated your iPhone to iOS 13.
You'll need to wait for the message to arrive on your phone, so a notification appears on your lock screen.
Then press down for slightly longer than usual on the message on the screen, and the full text will appear..
You can scroll up and down the message in full, even if it's very long.
Importantly, reading this notification won't trigger the blue ticks.
You'll need to make sure you don't swipe away your text notification.
If you do swipe it away, you won't be able to snoop on the text.
This works on any device that can upgrade to iOS 13..
That includes:
- iPhone 6S and 6S Plus
- iPhone SE
- iPhone 7 and 7 Plus
- iPhone 8 and 8 Plus
- iPhone X
- iPhone XS, XS Max and XR
- iPhone 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max
If you've got an iPhone 5S or older, you're stuck.
