I’ve been trying to figure out whether someone has blocked me on iMessage, but I’m not sure if the signs I’m seeing actually mean anything.
Normally, messages to this person would show as delivered pretty quickly. Recently, my messages don’t seem to be getting any response, and I’m noticing some differences compared to before. I’ve read online that things like the “Delivered” status disappearing, messages being sent as SMS instead of iMessage, or calls going straight to voicemail could be signs of being blocked, but I’ve also seen people say there are other explanations.
For those who know how iMessage works, is there any reliable way to tell if you’ve been blocked? Are there specific indicators that strongly suggest it, or is it impossible to know for sure?
I’d appreciate any clarification, especially from anyone who has experienced this firsthand.
