It's often the case that you send a message to someone on WhatsApp and only see a single tick. It's hard to tell if the other person has blocked you or if their internet connection is down. The problem is even more serious when the person doesn't even have a profile photo, making it difficult to determine the real reason.

Previously, there wasn't a surefire way to determine if you've been blocked. But now, with the help of the Meta AI feature in the app, this confusion can be largely resolved.

In fact, when someone is blocked, only one tick appears on the message sent to them. The same situation also occurs when the other person's phone is switched off or their internet connection is down. This similarity is what causes the confusion.

If you want to know if the other person has blocked you, open their chat window. Tag the AI ​​by typing @Meta AI, and then send a simple "Hi." This message will be addressed directly to the AI, not the other person.

If you've been blocked, this message will behave like a normal message, and you won't receive a reply. This means there'll be no response from the AI ​​either. In this case, it could indicate that you've been blocked.

But if you haven't been blocked, you'll receive an immediate response from Meta AI as soon as you send "Hi," even if the other person's internet is down. This clearly indicates that the problem is with the network, not the block.

Although this method hasn't been officially announced, many users are using it as a handy trick. Remember, in the digital world, it's best to consider important factors like profile updates, last seen, and call status before jumping to conclusions.
