Sometimes you read a WhatsApp message in inappropriate situations or do not have enough time to respond. In order not to forget that you should read or respond to this message carefully at the appropriate time, it is better to mark the chat as unread at the moment. In this article, you are going to learn how to mark a WhatsApp chat you have read as unread.

Steps to Unread a WhatsApp Chat

To unread messages in WhatsApp , just follow the steps below.

Step 1
Open WhatsApp Chats page.

Step 2
Hold your finger on the desired chat until a check mark appears on it and it is selected.

Step 3
Tap the ( ) icon at the top of the screen.

Step 4
Choose Mark as unread from the options that appear.

As a result, a green mark appears again in front of the person's name stating that their messages have not been read. This way you can re-read the messages at the appropriate time and respond as needed.

It should be noted that if you unread a message after reading it in WhatsApp, that message will be unread for you but will be displayed to the recipient as read (two blue tick next to the message in WhatsApp means the message has been opened and read). As a result, the sender of the message knows that you have read his message and is probably waiting for your response.
