With 30 million monthly active users in France, WhatsApp is the second most used messaging application, after Facebook Messenger. It has become the essential application to easily communicate with friends and family.
Although the team behind Whatsapp has made considerable progress in the area of security and respect for user privacy, some users continue to experience some problems in this regard. Worse, with the emergence of applications Web WhatsApp, more than ever, privacy seems threatened.
Following this, several questions arise: is it really possible to monitor a whatsapp number ? If so, how do you know? How to know if someone is spying on my WhatsApp profile ? In this article, I'll answer these questions and more.
5 signs to check to know if someone is watching you on WhatsApp
From my personal experience, I would say that there are five signs that allow you to find out if someone is watching you on WhatsApp.
- The person automatically goes online when you are also online.
- It sends you a message as soon as you open the WhatsApp application.
- The person constantly notices and comments on changes in your profile picture.
- The check mark instantly turns blue after you have sent a message to that person.
- The person is the first to appear in the list " who viewed my status On status updates.
How to see who has viewed your WhatsApp status?
If you want to see who viewed your status, you can. Unlike your profile, status updates on WhatsApp alert you to people who may be stalking you or just checking your account.
- First of all, first click on Status.
- Then press My status to see all of your recent news feed updates. Next to each status, an eye icon shows you how many people have viewed it.
- By swiping your finger up on a status, you'll see who recently viewed it.
Currently, this is the only way to answer the question that torments us all: " Who visits my WhatsApp profile »?
Keep in mind that your status only lasts for 24 hours, after which you will no longer be able to see who viewed the content you posted.
How do you know if you are being spied on via Whatsapp Web?
Web WhatsApp is currently the easiest way tospy on whatsapp conversations of somebody.
You just need to have access to your “victim’s” phone for a minute, the time to go to the application settings, to scan the Whatsapp Web QR code on a PC. All of his conversations will then be displayed there.
So how do you know if you are a victim of this little hack?
The first proof will appear on the cell phone itself in the form of a notification. Since the versions ofAndroid 7.1.2+ and iOS 10+ WhatsApp sends a notification to the target's phone whenever WhatsApp Web is activated.
If you missed it, you can check the account usage by following these steps.
- Open WhatsApp.
- Click on the menu option indicated by 3 vertical dots in the upper right corner.
- Here, click on the WhatsApp Web option and you can check any device or app that has access to your WhatsApp.
If one or more computers with an open session appear to which you have not given access, your WhatsApp account is compromised on another device.
If you just find the QR code bar, it means your account is not logged in in other device.
How to see who frequently checks your WhatsApp “Seen at”?
The only way to know if someone is frequently visiting your WhatsApp profile and checking your last visit is to use the modified version of WhatsApp, WhatsApp + .
As you probably already know, “ Seen at » indicates the last time your contacts used WhatsApp. Thanks to the WhatsApp+ application, you have the possibility to see how often your contacts visit your profile Whatsapp to see the “Seen at” mention about you.
Unfortunately this application for Android is not on Google Play, however you can download its APK file and then install it between your applications and thus be able to enjoy a lively WhatsApp.

Hello, how do I deactivate or block a person who has access to my WhatsApp account and who receives all my conversations?
Hello Bonaventure,
If you suspect that someone has access to your WhatsApp conversations, it could be due to various reasons:
If you still have doubts and the previous steps don't work, you can consider resetting your phone. However, this action will delete all data from your device. Be sure to back up any important content before doing so.
For more details, I invite you to look at these two computer guides:
I sent a message to a whatsapp contact, and I received the same message from another contact after 10 minutes, and it's not a coincidence.
There are several possible reasons why this could have happened:
It is important to note that WhatsApp uses end-to-end encryption for messages. This means that no one but you and the message recipient can read what is sent. Even WhatsApp cannot read messages. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that someone intercepted your message unless they have access to one of the contacts' phone.
Hi,
I am in controversy with a friend regarding a time to send a message. For some specific reason this one sent me a screenshot of our conversation today except on closer inspection I saw a difference between the time it was sent and the time reception. Let me explain: I received a message from this person at 12:06 p.m. except that on his screenshot the sending of the message displays 10:06 a.m. Do you have a plausible explanation? I thought about the fact that he would not live in France, but this friend assures me that he does indeed live in France, so how is it possible that there is this time difference? Is my friend lying to me about his place of residence or is there another possible answer?
I thank you very much in advance for your answer because I do not manage to understand the problem.
Hello Nathalie,
There can be several reasons for this two hour difference in the time of sending and receiving the message. Here are a few :
It would be best to check all of these with your friend to clear up this situation.
Hello,
how to explain that on a conversation with a person at the top it writes "seen at 20:00 p.m." when the message was read 5 days earlier?
Bjr just a question, there is a certain person every time I go on whatsapp, they too come in, as if there is a notification that tells them that I am online, how is this possible?
Hello Diop, I invite you to read this article: https://www.funinformatique.com/surveiller-whatsapp/
Hi . It's when I send a message to my contact he tells me with the double blue tick, that is to say that he has read my message but the question I am asking you I see the time has not changed it remains by the last connection of my contact..esque I spied on myself..I am in doubt…
Hello Belkralladi!
Seeing the double blue tick on WhatsApp is unlikely to indicate that you are being spied on. The blue double tick simply means that your contact has received and read your message, but their last connection time has not been updated. This can be due to various reasons such as disabled status updates, poor internet connection or incorrect app configuration.
In summary, there is no reason to believe that you are being spied on simply because of the situation you have described.
Hello
Question about WhatsApp
How can a message be read (blue double tick) after the WhatsApp last login time?.
Example… a message read at 12:30 p.m. while the last connection is 11:15 a.m.
Thank you
Hello Mayer,
The fact that a message was read on WhatsApp (indicated by the double blue tick) does not necessarily mean that the person saw it at that precise moment. There are several ways for a message to become read, such as receiving push notifications, status bar notification, or by simply opening the app and viewing unread messages in airplane mode. So even though the last login is marked as 11:15, the message may have been read at 12:30 due to one of these other methods.
