Can Someone Tell If You Are Looking at Their WhatsApp Messages?

No, WhatsApp does not directly allow users to know if someone else is looking at their messages. Privacy features protect users, so there’s no read receipt or notification sent for merely viewing messages. However, once you read a message, the sender will know it’s been read if you have read receipts enabled, which is symbolized by the two blue check marks.
