Checking Zalo's Screen Active Status

Hey there! So you want to know how to check if someone's Zalo screen is active, huh? Well, Zalo doesn't have an explicit feature to show if a user's screen is active, but there are some indirect ways to figure it out. Let's dive into them!

1. Last Seen Feature

The easiest way to have an idea about someone's availability on Zalo is to check their Last Seen status. It tells you when they were last active. If it's recent, they might be online or at least active on their device. However, remember that people can turn off the Last Seen feature entirely, making it less reliable.

2. Chat Activity

If you're in a chat with someone and they've been responding to your messages, there's a good chance they're around. A quick back-and-forth is a pretty clear sign that the person is active.

3. Call Them!

Want to make sure they're really there? Give them a call or send them a voice message. If they answer or respond quickly, you know they're active and available.

4. Use Other Apps

It might sound a bit silly, but sometimes you can get a better idea of someone's availability by using other apps they're active on. If they're chatting on another social media platform or messaging app, they're probably not that busy.

5. Check for Active Status

Zalo has an Active Status feature that lets users set a status symbol or message. If someone has set a status like 'Online' or 'Do Not Disturb,' it gives you a clearer picture of their availability.

6. Try the Red Dot!

When you send a message to someone, and a red dot appears next to your message, it means your message has been read. If you notice this red dot popping up, it's a good sign that they're actively using Zalo.

7. Custom Status Messages

Some users set a custom status message saying things like 'Busy,' 'In a meeting,' or 'Away.' This helps others understand their availability without needing to directly check their screen status.

8. Zalo Stories

Have you seen someone posting on their Zalo Stories? If they're active on their stories, they're probably checking Zalo frequently.

9. Checking Through Friends

If you have mutual friends, you might find out someone's availability by asking them. Sometimes, friends might give you hints or even confirm if someone is active on Zalo.

10. Wait for a Response

The simplest way is to just send a message and wait for a response. If they reply quickly, chances are they were active. If it takes a while, they might be away from their device.

Conclusion

Alright, so while Zalo doesn't have a direct feature to show a screen's active status, there are plenty of indirect ways to get an idea of someone's availability. Just remember to respect privacy and not harass someone if they're not responding quickly. Hope this helps, and happy chatting!
