As a way of informing whether the other person has actually read your message, WhatsApp has made some information objects available, which symbolize this read confirmation. In the message itself, two dashes usually appear, which can be gray or blue. The first color means confirmation of receipt of the message. The second appears when the person viewed and read the messages. For more details on how to know that the person has actually read your message on WhatsApp, read the full article!

To confirm the sending, receiving and reading of your messages, WhatsApp itself has provided a symbol for each respective meaning. To confirm that the message was successfully sent, a gray “V” appears.
As for confirmations of “message successfully delivered to the recipient's cell phone or connected devices”, the “v” appears in duplicate. And finally, to let you know that the recipient has read your message, these same two "v"'s will appear in a blue hue.
These are the forms that occur in a private conversation. In a group chat, the second “V” will appear when all group members have received your message. The blue tint will appear when all participants have read what was submitted.
However, many people felt uncomfortable when read receipts appeared. It was as if the other person got the right to charge that, since the message was read, he needs a response right then and there. However, in real life this is not how things work.
Therefore, if you are one of these people and want to deactivate this confirmation, know that it is possible. For this, you will need to go to your WhatsApp settings tab. Then select the “Account” option, and then the “Privacy” category. On this page, you can choose whether to enable or disable read receipts.
