Read Receipts and Message Status

In one-to-one conversations, message status indicators appear beside your outgoing messages when read receipts are enabled. Group conversations do not display Sent or Read indicators.

Sent

A single check mark followed by Sent appears in gray when the server has accepted your message.

 

This status confirms that the message was sent. It does not confirm that someone has read it.
