1. Disable WhatsApp notifications

Users who wish to stop receiving messages on WhatsApp can temporarily disable the platform’s notifications to block alerts.

To disable alerts Android, go to device settings and click on the tab “Apps & notifications”. Then select View All Apps, go to the WhatsApp icon and tap Notifications. To complete the procedure, turn off the switch next to “All notifications from WhatsApp”.

2. Prevent background playback

Preventing the app from running in the background is also a useful measure to stop receiving messages on WhatsApp. This is because the messenger continues to work even when the app is apparently closed – which is why you receive notifications of new messages even when you’re away from your phone.

In this sense, by making it impossible for WhatsApp to run in the background, you prevent the arrival of new messages through the messenger even if the Internet is on. To do this, on Android, go to the device settings and click on the “Network and Internet” tab. Then click “Advanced” and select the “Save data” option. On the next screen, complete the procedure by activating the switch next to “Use data saver”.

On iPhone (iOS), go to Settings and tap “Mobile”. Then select Cellular Data Options, and tap Mode and Data. To continue, select the Data Saver Mode option to pause background activities.

3. Disable mobile data usage on WhatsApp

Another way to prevent messages from being received on WhatsApp is to disable the mobile data of the app. This way, it is possible to close the app’s notifications momentarily. However, it should be noted that the messenger will return to normal once the user maintains a stable connection again.

On Android, go to Settings and tap on the Apps & Notifications tab. Then click on View All Apps and select the WhatsApp icon. Next, tap on the “Mobile Data & Wi-Fi” tab and turn off the switch next to “Background data”.

On iPhone (iOS), access Settings and tap the “Mobile” tab. Then swipe down the screen and close the switch next to “WhatsApp”.

To force stop the messenger on Android, access the platform settings and go to “Apps & notifications”. Then click on View All Apps and select the WhatsApp icon. On the next screen, choose Force Stop to complete the action.
