I dont use read reciepts on WhatsApp. I keep it off. So I cannot see if a person has read my message or the sender of a message cannot see Ihave read their message. Status update views are also hidden.
Other messaging apps also have this feature. I personally don’t like it. Do you?
Claiming to have missed a message is ~1/4 of all the messages I send. I’m not about to provide proof that I’m lying.
