  • To be able to deactivate it, simply press on the WhatsApp chat.
  • Then above, at the top, a new menu will appear.
  • Press the three dots in the corner and you should see the word “Mark as read”.
  • At that moment you will see that the green dot that was shown in your chat will disappear.
  • Remember that if you press the “Mark as unread” again, that does not mean that the two blue checks of your friend’s conversation also disappear.
  • It is simply meant to remind you that this message is important and should be responded to when you can.
