One list in Settings tells you whether your number is ready and what still needs your attention.
Scroll down in Settings → WhatsApp connection to Connection health. A green dot means the line is fine, amber means it needs your attention or is waiting on Meta, and red means something is missing: for example, Number connected is red until you connect a number.
| Line | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Number connected | Messages for this number arrive in the inbox. |
| Display name approved | Whether Meta has finished reviewing the name. |
| Quality rating | Meta rates a number after it has sent messages. Until then, Not rated yet. |
| Daily messaging limit | How many people you can start conversations with. It grows as you send good-quality messages. |
| Coexistence | On means you also use the number in the WhatsApp Business app. Off means it is used only through this app. |
| Payment method added | Without a card, templates are blocked; replies still work. |
| Business verified | Unverified businesses can start conversations with 250 people a day. |
