Are you having trouble turning off read receipts on your Macbook? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Read receipts allow the sender of a message to know when the receiver has opened and read the message. It’s a helpful feature for those who are trying to follow up with someone, but it can also be intrusive for those who don’t want to be tracked.

If you want to turn off read receipts on your Macbook, there are a few steps you need to take. First, open the Messages app on your Macbook and choose Messages > Settings. Then click iMessage. On the Settings page, select “Send read receipts” and uncheck the box next to it. This will disable read receipts in all conversations you have with people using Apple devices.

However, if you only want to turn off read receipts for one conversation, that is also possible! First select the conversation that you would like to disable read receipts for, then click the Details button in the top-right corner of the Messages window. On this page, select “Send Read Receipts” and uncheck it. This will disable read receipts only for that conversation while leaving them enabled in all other conversations with people using Apple devices.

We hope these instructions were helpful and that they helped solve any issues that you had regarding turning off read receipts on your Macbook or Android device!
