Signs Someone Blocked You on iMessage
Here are some common signs that someone may have blocked you on iMessage:
- Messages remain blue or green but are not marked as Delivered: When you send an iMessage, it usually turns blue (indicating that it is an iMessage) or green (indicating that it is an SMS). If you’re blocked, your message will remain blue or green but won’t show the “Delivered” status.
- Phone calls ring once and go to voicemail: If you call the person who blocked you, the call might ring once before going to voicemail. This may not be conclusive evidence, but it is a possible sign that you’ve been blocked.
- FaceTime calls are unsuccessful: If you’re unable to make a FaceTime call with the person, it could indicate that they have blocked you.
How to Know If You’re Blocked on iMessage
Here are some methods to determine if you’ve been blocked on iMessage:
- Send an iMessage and check for the Delivered status: As mentioned earlier, if your iMessage doesn’t show the “Delivered” status, it could be a sign that you’re blocked. However, keep in mind that this could also be due to network or device issues on the recipient’s end.
- Call the person’s phone number: If your call goes straight to voicemail after one ring, it could be an indication that you’re blocked. Note that this isn’t definitive proof, as the person might be on Do Not Disturb mode or have their phone turned off.
- Try FaceTiming the person: If your FaceTime calls don’t go through, it could be another sign that you’re blocked. Again, this isn’t definitive evidence, as there could be other reasons for the call not connecting.
Remember, while these signs can indicate that you’ve been blocked on iMessage, they are not foolproof. There could be other reasons for these issues, such as network problems, device issues, or the recipient’s settings.
