If I Delete a Contact on WhatsApp Can They Still Message Me
If you delete a person from your phone's contact list, they will still appear on WhatsApp. Additionally, if you purchase a new device and sync WhatsApp contacts, all numbers deleted from your phone - but not from WhatsApp - will also be visible. In other words, you could end up with a bunch of numbers that were deleted long ago. The solution? If you don't plan to contact them again, delete them both from your phone's contact list and from WhatsApp. These two lists are not directly interconnected, so you must manage each one separately.
Does the deleted contact know that they have been deleted?
No, WhatsApp contacts will not know that you have deleted them. However, they will know if you have blocked them because they will not be able to send you a message.
Will a deleted contact still be able to send me messages?
Yes. Deleted contacts won't know they've been deleted, and your number will still be stored in their contact list. This way, deleted contacts will be able to call and send you messages. The only difference is that you will see their phone number instead of their name. If you want to stop someone from calling or texting you, block the contact.
What happens when you delete a WhatsApp contact?
When you delete a WhatsApp contact, their name in your chat list is replaced with their phone number. You'll still see their profile picture and your normal chat won't be deleted unless you manually do so. The same applies to WhatsApp groups where both you and the deleted contact are members.
If you delete a chat with a deleted contact, you won't be able to contact them again unless you remember their phone number. But, if you still share a group, you can still tap the person's number in the group member list and call them or write a message. Deleted contacts won't know they've been deleted and can still send you messages.
