Make text bold, italics, and strikethrough

Sometimes while sending some text messages you want to emphasize some of the text by making it bold, italics or strikethrough.

Bold, Italics and Strikethrough

For Bold: Put an  * (asterisk) before and after the text to make it bold.

Example :  * write your text*

For Italics : put an  _  ( underscore sign) before and after the text.

Example :  _write you text_

For Strike Through: put an ~ (tilde sign) before and after the text.

Example :   ~write your Text~

If you want to see anyone messages but didn’t want the sender know that you have seen it ( without giving a blue tick to them) you can do this.

Go to Settings >Account >Privacy > Untick Read Receipts

Bold, Italics, Strikethrough

Now when you will see anyone message, he/she will not be able to know whether you have seen the message or not because blue a tick will not be shown. but it has a disadvantage too, you will also be not able to see a blue tick on the messages you use to send to others.

Know Whether You are Blocked or Not

Sometimes you and I send messages to someone but do not get any reply for a very long time. In that condition, you become eager to check whether you have been blocked or not.

To know this simply create a group and add that person you want to check. If you are able to create a group successfully… then congratulations you are not blocked… and probably  the person is running very busy with his schedule

But if you are not able to create the group and a message “ Couldn’t add Person” appears,  you have been BLOCKED…..!!!
