It is possible that you are blocked if iMessage doesn’t say delivered. Generally, when a message you’ve sent to someone on iMessage is marked as “Delivered” it means the sender has successfully sent the message and the recipient has read it.
However, if you’ve sent several messages and none of them are marked as “Delivered,” it could mean one of a few things. It could mean your recipient has stopped responding for some reason, or that the recipient’s phone does not have a data connection or has been powered off, or it could even mean that you have been blocked by the recipient.
The best way to find out is to contact the recipient directly or to send a message on a different platform, such as Facebook, WhatsApp, or email and see if they respond.
Why would an iMessage not show as delivered?
Firstly, the recipient could have shut down their iMessage app, or turned off their device. That would mean that the iMessage has been sent, but hasn’t been received. Secondly, the recipient may have no internet connection.
For an iMessage to be sent and received, both the sender and the recipient need to be connected to the internet. If only one person has an internet connection, the message won’t go through. Thirdly, the sender may have the wrong phone number on their device.
Even if the phone number is entered correctly, it must be a valid iMessage number in order for the message to be delivered. Lastly, the recipient may have blocked the sender, which means that the messages won’t show up as being delivered and won’t be received.
How do I tell if I’m blocked on iMessage?
If you suspect someone has blocked you on iMessage, there are several steps you can take to determine for sure.
Firstly, try to send the person a message. If it is sent as a standard SMS, not an iMessage, then chances are that you’ve been blocked from iMessage.
If you are still unsure, attempt to Facetime or call the person. If you get the message ‘Call Failed’ repeatedly, then chances are that you have been blocked. Additionally, if you have been blocked, the person’s name will no longer appear in your contacts list.
On iPhone, you can also check this by using the FaceTime app. Go to the info option, located at the top right corner of your display. If the person you are trying to reach is still in your contacts list, they will appear in the info option.
If the person has blocked you, their contact information will not appear in that section.
Finally, if all else fails, contact your service provider to confirm. They should be able to tell you definitively whether or not you have been blocked.
Why are my messages staying blue but not delivered?
It could be due to a few different issues. The first is if your message recipient has their “Read Receipts” functionality turned off. If this is the case, then your messages will remain blue until the recipient views or acknowledges the message.
The second possible cause is if you or the recipient have a poor or unstable connection. If this is the case then messages won’t be delivered until the connection is re-established. Finally, it is possible that the recipient may have blocked you from messaging them, which will prevent your messages from being delivered and will keep them blue.
Will iMessage turn green if blocked?
No, iMessage will not turn green if you are blocked. When you are blocked, messages sent from you to someone else will never be delivered, and no delivery receipt will be generated. The color of the messages that you sent will not change, and they will still be blue.
Additionally, you will not see any typing indicator while the person is typing, nor will you be able to see when they have seen the message. There are other signs you can look out for to see if you have been blocked though, such as:
– If your messages appear in the same thread as a group chat, and the person’s replies only appear in other individual threads.
– If you have tried calling the same person and the call goes directly to voicemail without ringing.
– If all old messages sent prior to being blocked still appear as blue not green.
If any of these signs appear, it’s likely you have been blocked on iMessage.
Am I blocked or is their phone off?
It is difficult to answer the question of whether or not you are blocked or if their phone is off without any additional information regarding your relationship with the person, the type of phone they have and any other context surrounding your particular situation.
If you believe that you are blocked and all attempts at communication have failed, you could use a reverse phone lookup directory to cross-reference the person’s phone number and determine if their phone is still active or not.
A reverse phone lookup will also show you the registered address associated with their phone number, which could provide further clues about the status of the person’s phone.
Alternatively, if you are able to contact the person you are trying to reach through other channels of communication, such as social media or email, then you can send a message and receive an immediate response that will give you a better indication of the status of their phone.
Ultimately, it is difficult to accurately assess the reason as to why you may not be able to reach the person without any further details.
Do blocked iMessages turn green?
No, blocked iMessages do not turn green. The iMessage system does not provide any way to distinguish a blocked message from a message that has been sent without being blocked. If you’re sending a message to someone and it doesn’t send with a blue bubble and indicators of delivery, then the message has likely been blocked, but there is no way to tell for sure without asking the other person.
Also, if you are able to see when the other person was last active on iMessage, then you can be sure that the message was not blocked, as the person would need to be able to receive the message to be active on the iMessage system.
What does sent but not delivered mean?
Sent but not delivered means that an email or message was sent from the sender’s account, but did not reach the recipient’s inbox. It could mean that the message was blocked by the recipient’s email provider, or that it was marked as spam and never reached the recipient’s mailbox.
It could also mean that the message arrived in the recipient’s inbox, but was deleted before the recipient had a chance to view it. Generally speaking, when a message is sent but not delivered, the sender will not be notified of the delivery failure unless they utilise a delivery tracking service or are notified by reception of a bounce back message.
