Here’s How People Can’t Send WhatsApp to You Without Blocking it

There are times when we feel disturbed when we receive WhatsApp messages from certain people. You feel like blocking the number, but you don't want the person to find out.

Blocking causes characteristics, and that is definitely not helpful for relationships. Now, for those of you who feel guilty if you block but don’t want to be bothered by that person, there are several steps that can be taken.

How People Can’t Send WhatsApp to You Without Blocking it

Here’s how to prevent people from sending WhatsApp to us without blocking:

1. Archiving messages

One way to prevent others from sending WhatsApp messages to us without us having to block them is by utilizing the archive feature.

This will prevent the communication from appearing on our smartphone. Instead, it will be placed into a special container, so we will not be disturbed by the message.

Archiving a message is quite simple. Just long press the message that has been sent by the person you don’t want and then click the archive icon at the top.

To restore the archived message, scroll down the chat menu to the bottom until you find the archive logo.

Next, click on the icon and long-press the message. Click on the restore archive icon.

2. Change the number

We can also prevent ourselves from being disturbed by WhatsApp messages from certain people by changing their WhatsApp number to a completely different number.

But unfortunately for this method, the impact is very broad. Not only can messages not be sent by certain people but also all contacts, including those you don’t actually want.
