How to see if someone has blocked you on iPhone

There is no direct way to check if someone has blocked you on iPhone, but there are some clues that may indicate it. These include checking if a message sent via iMessage does not have a delivery confirmation or if a call does not go through.

Another tip is to use another line to test for possible blocking. Below, check out four tips to check if someone has blocked you on your iPhone.

How to Know if I've Been Blocked on iPhone Messages

1. iMessage without delivery confirmation

Send a message via iMessage if the person also has an iPhone. If the message doesn’t display a “Delivered” or “Read” confirmation for a long period of time, it could be a sign that you’ve been blocked. However, this doesn’t always mean that you’ve been blocked, as the phone may be turned off or have no signal.

2. Calls sent directly to voicemail

If all your calls to that person go straight to voicemail without ringing, it could be a sign that you've been blocked. However, this behavior can also happen if the other person has no signal or has Do Not Disturb mode turned on, for example.

3. FaceTime Verification

Similar to iMessage and carrier calling, try making a video call via FaceTime. If the call doesn't go through or doesn't show the video call option, this could be another sign of a blockage.

4. Test with another number

Try calling that person from another number. If the call answers or rings normally, but your calls don't, you may have been blocked.
