Blank WhatsApp messages: Send a note without content!
What is the trick?
Our trick (hack) to recommend is based on the use of Unicode characters, which may provide both normal or visible text and invisible or hidden text. Since, the Unicode system is a character encoding system, used by computing devices to store and exchange data. And luckily, this character system is supported (enabled) within the WhatsApp algorithm.
And specifically, the Unicode character that we should use is based on the braille alphabet. which corresponds to Unicode character “U+2800” which, in turn, corresponds to a blank space. Thus, our recipient will be able to receive a blank message, and he will see absolutely nothing. Only the confirmation message of receipt of the same.
Steps to send a blank message on WhatsApp
To use (obtain and copy) said Unicode character “U+2800” We can use several ways, and these are the following:
- Copy the hidden (invisible) content inside the following separators: > <.
