How to send a blank message on WhatsApp

  1. Pick a character

    Braille blank works in most chats. Hangul filler is for names.

  2. Choose the lines

    One line for a single empty bubble, more for a tall one.

  3. Copy or send

    Copy it, or tap Send on WhatsApp and choose the chat.

  4. Paste and send

    In the chat, paste and press send. It arrives empty.

When people use a blank message

Why WhatsApp needs a special character for blank messages

WhatsApp trims the spaces and line breaks around a message before sending it, so if you type only spaces there is nothing left to send. The characters here, Braille pattern blank (U+2800) and Hangul filler (U+3164), are not spaces to a computer, so WhatsApp keeps them, but phone fonts draw them as empty. That's why the bubble arrives with nothing in it.

Blank message vs. a message that won't send

If your send button stays grey, the message is empty to WhatsApp: it only had spaces or line breaks. Copy the blank message from this page instead. If it sends but shows a small box, the phone's font draws that character; switch to the other one above.

Frequently asked questions

How do I send a blank message on WhatsApp?

Tap Copy blank message above, open a chat, paste it and send. Or tap Send on WhatsApp and pick the contact. The message goes out as an empty bubble.

Why can't I send just a space?

WhatsApp removes spaces and empty lines from the start and end of a message, so a message of only spaces is empty and the send button stays off. This tool uses an invisible character that WhatsApp keeps but phones draw as nothing.

The message shows a small box. What do I do?

Some phone fonts draw one of the characters as a box. Switch to the other character above, Hangul filler, and copy again.

Can I make my WhatsApp name or About blank?

Usually, yes. Choose Hangul filler, copy it, and paste it as your name or About in WhatsApp settings. WhatsApp can change what it accepts, so if the name won't save, try the other character.

Does the other person get a notification?

Yes, like any message. The notification and the chat show an empty bubble, so they will see that you sent something.

Can sending blank messages get my number banned?

One blank message to someone who knows you is fine. Sending many blank or repeated messages, especially to people who don't have your number saved, gets you reported, and numbers with many reports get restricted by WhatsApp. If you message customers in bulk, use broadcasts the way WhatsApp allows.

Is this tool free? Is anything saved?

Free, with no signup and no limit. The message is made in your browser; nothing is sent to us or stored.
