How to unblock myself if I have been blocked on WhatsApp

When a user blocks you on WhatsApp, there is nothing you can do to lift the restrictions. As long as someone keeps you on the blacklist, you will not be able to send them messages, photos, videos, or voice memos. You will also not see their statuses or the last time they logged in. However, apparently, a trick will help you remove the block imposed by any user. It involves deleting your account and recreating it.

Previous considerations

Before proceeding, you should consider the following aspects:

• By deleting your account, WhatsApp will remove you from all groups. Therefore, when you log in again with your number, you will have to ask the administrators to add you again.
• Since this is a new account, likely, you will not be able to recover your backup correctly. Create a manual backup of everything you want to keep.
• Until you re-create your profile, no one will be able to contact you via WhatsApp.

Considering this, we advise you to evaluate if it is worthwhile to try to unblock yourself with this method.
