WhatsApp disable function

Those of us who love privacy clapped our ears when reading and proved that when deactivating read receipts and listening to the audios of Whatsapp, they did not appear as listened to the person who sent them. Avoided showing the two blue checks and, with them, the time at which we played the audio.

If you didn't know, the audios of WhatsApp are the only way to ensure that a person reads, in this case listens to, a WhatsApp messageWith version 2.21.4o this was changed to allow people who had read receipts turned off to not leave the blue check mark on audio someone sent us.

Now this has stopped working and we don't know why. Could it be a WhatsApp bug? Will he come back in the future?.

ATTENTION: The error was fixed in later versions and it works perfectly again

WhatsApp re-enables the double blue check in the audios, even if we have read receipts disabled:

Getting ready to record a video on our Youtube channel, we noticed it.

Double blue check in WhatsApp audio

Even having the "Read confirmation" option deactivated in our account and sending us an audio from another mobile with the read confirmations activated, they appear, in said iPhone, the two blue checks when we listen to the audio.

If we deactivate the reading confirmations on both mobiles, the blue double check does not appear when listening to the audios. This means that only devices with the read receipt disabled are prevented from being seen.

It is a privacy issue that we wanted to record as it can lead to misunderstandings. If the contact that sends you the audio has read receipts activated, the time you listened to the audio will appear. If you have it disabled, it won't appear.

Be careful with this, it may cause some misunderstandings for many of you.

How to listen to WhatsApp audios without the check:
