How to read Messenger messages without being detected as read

Unlike Zalo, Messenger does not allow users to turn off read receipts. To read Messenger messages without the sender knowing you’ve seen them, you can use one of the following tips.

– Enable pop-up notifications on your device

For phones using the iOS operating system, users will go to Settings, select Notifications and turn on Allow Notifications => Notification Center.

For phones using the Android operating system, users will go to the phone’s Settings, select Notifications and Control Center. Then, select to turn on the Floating Notifications feature, select the Messenger application.

After enabling pop-up notifications, users can read the content of incoming messages right on the phone’s notification screen without having to open the Messenger application. By doing this, the sender will not be able to know that you have read the message they sent.

– Enable lock screen notifications

When enabling lock screen notifications, users can read incoming messages even when the phone is locked and without having to open the Messenger application.

For phones using the iOS operating system, go to Settings, select Notifications => enable Allow Notifications on Lock Screen.

For the Android operating system, you will also access the phone’s Settings, select Notifications and Control Center => enable Notifications on lock screen.

After enabling this feature, you can read incoming messages right on the lock screen without having to unlock the phone and access the Messenger application.

Frequently asked questions

Unlike Zalo, Messenger does not have a built-in option to turn off read receipts. However, there are two workarounds: enable pop-up notifications or lock screen notifications. With pop-up notifications enabled, you can read incoming messages on your device’s notification screen without opening the Messenger app. Alternatively, enabling lock screen notifications allows you to read messages even when your phone is locked, again without opening the Messenger application.
