Turning off read receipts for messages can be useful when you don’t want others to know when you have read their message. iPhone users can either choose to turn off the feature for all conversations on the iMessage app or can decide for individual chats on a case to case basis.
In case you are using more than one Apple device, there is no need to enable or disable read receipts for each device. The settings are linked to your Apple ID and will automatically be synced with other devices that you own – iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Here we take you on a step-by-step guide to disable read receipts for all conversations as well as for individual chats:
