Can you send messages to someone you have blocked on iPhone?

No, you cannot send messages to someone you have blocked on your iPhone. When you block someone on an iPhone, it will prevent them from being able to contact you in any way. This includes messages, calls, FaceTime, and other forms of communication.

Any messages they try to send you will be blocked and they will not receive any delivery notifications. The only way to unblock someone is to go to your settings and manually unblock them.

How do I see blocked messages on iPhone?

The ability to view blocked messages on an iPhone will depend on how the messages are sent. If the messages are being sent as traditional SMS or MMS text messages, they cannot be retrieved once they have been blocked.

This is because the blocking process prevents the messages from being delivered to your phone from the sender in the first place.

However, if the messages are sent via iMessage or third-party messaging services like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger, there is a good chance you can view the blocked messages. To check, go to the respective app and check to see if you can view the conversation history with the sender, even if their name is blocked.

If the messages do appear, you can usually view them.

It is also possible to check the blocked messages from a shared iCloud account. When setting up an iPhone, you can add an Apple ID that you have previously used. If you have shared a single Apple ID with a previous user and they have blocked the messages, you will be able to view them under the shared iCloud.

If the messages are not appearing in any of the above locations, unfortunately, they cannot be retrieved.

What happens when you text someone who blocked you on iPhone?

When you text someone who has blocked you on iPhone, the messages you send will not be delivered to the person. The blocked user will not receive any notifications about the messages either. Depending on your carrier, the message may remain in a “Sending…” or “Not Delivered” status.

The blocked user will not be able to see any evidence that you have been in communication with them. Additionally, if you try to call the person who has blocked you, they will not receive the call. Your iPhone will instead notify you that the call was unsuccessful or that the number you are trying to call is not available.

How can I contact someone who blocked me?

Unfortunately, if someone blocked you, they have effectively put a barrier between you and them, preventing you from being able to contact them directly. This is why it is so important to remain respectful and kind to people you interact with online, as it makes it harder for them to cut-off contact if the relationship becomes strained.

That said, there are a few ways you can try to contact someone who blocked you. If it is someone from your workplace, school, or another organization, you can try to contact them through an official channel.

For example, if it is a coworker, you can contact HR about the issue. If it is someone from school, you can talk to your principal or a club leader if you are both members of a club.

If the person you are trying to contact is a friend or someone you have a personal relationship with, there are still ways you can try to contact them. You can ask mutual friends if they have any contact with the person and if they can relay a message or pass on your contact information.

You could also try messaging or emailing the person’s family or friends. They may be more willing to get your message to the person than you are able to get your message to them directly.

Ultimately, if you’ve been blocked, it’s important to respect that decision and try to move forward positively. Blocking someone is usually done for a reason, so if you’ve been blocked it could be a good idea to reflect on what happened between you and the other person, and take this as an opportunity to improve your interactions with people in the future.

Can you see if a blocked number has tried to contact you?

Yes, it is possible to see if a blocked number has tried to contact you. Depending on your phone’s operating system, the steps may vary slightly.

For iPhone:

1. Open the Settings app.

2. Tap “Phone.”

3. Select “Call Blocking & Identification” or “Block Contact.”

4. Here you’ll find a list of numbers that you have blocked from contacting you. If a blocked number has tried to contact you, it will be listed.

For Android devices:

1. Open the Phone app.

2. Tap the Menu icon (the three dots in the upper right).

3. Select “Settings” and then “Block Numbers.”

4. Here you’ll find a list of numbers that you have blocked from contacting you. If a blocked number has tried to contact you, it will be listed.

Additionally, some services may provide logs or records of calls and texts, even if they are blocked. For example, your carrier may keep logs of any incoming calls that they were unable to deliver. You can contact your service provider to inquire whether they can provide a log of blocked contacts.

Can I call a number I blocked on iPhone?

No, unfortunately you cannot call a number you have blocked on your iPhone. Once you have added a number to your blocked list, the number is automatically prevented from making incoming calls to your device.

You may be able to unblock the number and then call them, but you will likely have to wait 24 hours before this takes effect. Additionally, the individual on the other end will not be notified if they are successfully removed from your blocked list, and they won’t be able to call you until they take additional steps.

How do you tell if your texts are blocked?

If you suspect that someone has blocked your texts there are a few signs you can look out for. Firstly, if you notice that the person is unusually slow in responding to your texts, or not replying to them at all, this could be a sign they have blocked you.

Secondly, if you attempt to call the person and it straight away goes to voicemail or if you can hear the phone ringing and they are not picking up, this could mean they have blocked your number and are not receiving your calls either.

Thirdly, you may find that if you send multiple messages in succession, all of them might be delivered at once instead of one at a time. This could mean that the person has blocked your texts.

If you have confirmed the above signs, then it is safe to conclude that your texts have been blocked. If you are still unsure, your best bet would be to contact the person directly and ask them if that is the case.

How do you know if someone blocked your texts on iPhone?

If you suspect that someone has blocked your texts on iPhone, there are a few things you can do to check. First, send a message to the person and see if you get a delivery receipt. If you get a delivered receipt, the person has not blocked you.

If after a few minutes the message does not say “Delivered,” the person may have blocked you. It is possible that the person has poor reception or does not have a strong connection to their cellphone service provider; however, this is not very likely.

Another way to check is to look at any recent messages or conversations that you have sent to the person. If all messages have sent as “Delivered” but then suddenly stop appearing in the conversation, it is likely that the person has blocked you.

Lastly, you can ask someone else to call the person and check if they pick up. If the person does not answer, it could mean that they blocked your number.

Do blocked messages get delivered when unblocked?

Yes, any messages that were previously blocked will be delivered to the recipient once the sender has been unblocked. This includes any messages that were sent while the sender was blocked, as well as any future messages sent after they are unblocked.

So if the recipient had blocked a sender, all the messages the sender sent during that time period will be delivered to the recipient after the sender is unblocked. It is important to note, however, that there may still be a delay in message delivery due to various factors such as device or network connection speeds.

Where do blocked texts go?

When a text message is blocked, it means the person sending the text cannot reach the recipient’s phone. Depending on the device and provider of the recipient, blocked text messages may be stored in different places.

On some devices and services, a text message sent by an individual and then blocked will be retained with other blocked messages. Other devices and providers may discard blocked messages and the person who sent the text will not have an indication that it is blocked.

What do blocked callers hear iPhone?

When a blocked caller tries to call someone using an iPhone, they will hear a recording that says that the number they are trying to reach is not accepting calls. Additionally, if someone has also blocked their caller ID, the blocked caller will hear a generalized recording that calls cannot be accepted at this time.

Why did my text messages turn from blue to green am I blocked?

The change from blue to green may be due to the different messaging services used by the sender and recipient. For instance, if the sender uses an iPhone, messages are sent as Apple iMessage texts, which appear in blue.

If the recipient uses an Android device, the messages will be sent as SMS texts and will appear in green. This is simply a way to indicate that the messages are sent through different types of services.

It is not necessarily an indication that you have been blocked. However, if you have sent multiple messages that haven’t been received or returned with a ”read” receipt, it may be a sign that the messages are being blocked.

It’s also possible that your message may have been delivered but inadvertently marked as spam by the recipient. If you think your messages may have been blocked, it’s best to confirm with the recipient.

How can I see a missed call from a blocked number?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to see a missed call from a blocked number. This is by design as blocking a number is intended to ensure that any calls or messages from the blocked number do not reach the recipient.

In order to be able to see a missed call from a blocked number, you would need to unblock the number, and then you should be able to see the missed call. However, since the number is blocked, it will not be able to leave any messages via voicemail or text.
