Hide messages from a blocked number on WhatsApp?
Hello,
A few months ago, I blocked a number on WhatsApp. I also removed the contact from my contact list. The number has now been added to a group, and I can still see the name and even the messages.
Is it possible to block a private chat and also prevent me from seeing messages in a group? At least, that's my understanding of the "block" function. I would prefer not to be able to read the messages.
Thank you!
No, there’s no way.
WhatsaApp itself advises not to go into groups with blocked persons.

Thank you for your research. Unfortunately, this completely contradicts my understanding behind the function. I mean on Discord this is possible.
Too bad, I’ll have to live with it.
To block a group, but also to understand a group.
And if you could not read individual posts – but then again the answers of others – the chat would become completely incomprehensible.
Makes sense
No. This does not work in groups in messengers. Blocked means that you cannot send private messages
If you do not want to see any posts from a group, you can block or exit the group
