Blocking Someone on Android Messages and Apple iMessage
When you block a contact over Android or iPhone, they will still be able to send you text messages. These messages will not show up on your phone but the sender will see the messages as sent. They won't know that they've been blocked.
The initial sign that you've been blocked is you won't be able to see the other person's online status, and the other person's profile picture will be removed. You can even try sending them messages, but it won't deliver, and there will only be a single check sign.
The blocked party won't get a notification that they've been blocked, but if they call your landline they may hear a busy signal, or a message that their call couldn't go through or that the number is busy. Which variation of this they hear will depend on the carrier.
Android phones move all blocked messages into a folder on the phone called “Spam and Blocked.” That means that the phone is still collecting messages from the blocked people; they just aren't notifying you. This can be a lifesaver in needing those blocked messages for various reasons after the fact.
When someone that you've blocked texts you, their texts go nowhere. They won't receive any notification that they're blocked, and their messages will still look like they've been sent. But you won't receive any of them, and you can't respond.
Blocked messages will not come through when unblocked.
While someone is blocked, any sent text messages will be blocked by Messages. You won't be able to retrieve them.
If you call a phone and hear the normal number of rings before getting sent to voicemail, then it's a normal call. If you're blocked, you would only hear a single ring before being diverted to voicemail.
Your old messages remain blue, but the latest texts you send after they've blocked you turn green. However, the bubble colors aren't accurate clues. They could mean the recipient turned off their phone, gone offline, or switched from iOS to Android.
Messages that are sent or received won't be delivered. Also, the contact won't get a notification that the call or message was blocked.
When you send them an SMS and you get the "Delivered" notification underneath it, you weren't blocked. If you get a notification like "Message Not Delivered" or you get no notification at all, that's a sign of a potential block.
If you have an iPhone and try to send an iMessage to someone who has blocked you, it will remain blue (which means it's still an iMessage). However, the person you've been blocked by will never receive that message.
If you make a call and receive an automated message along the lines of “the customer is unavailable,” that person's wireless carrier may have blocked you. The messages can vary, but the result is the same. Your call won't go through.
once you have blocked someone you can not call or text them and you can not receive any messages or calls from them either. you will have to unblock them to contact them.
You may see a green text bubble if one of the following conditions occurs: The recipient is using a non-Apple device like an Android device, or switched to a non-Apple device since the last iMessage you were able to send. The recipient's setting does not allow the iMessage to be delivered.
If something is writing hateful messages to you, then you should block them. You do not have to listen to their criticisms or opinions. They are not entitled to a response from you, or even a view. You have the right to remove these from your space, and you really should.
Usually, when a person blocks you, they don't want to speak or interact with you. While this is the typical implication of getting blocked, he might have used the block button to get your attention. Sometimes, getting suddenly blocked could be a desperate move for him.
If you see a green message bubble instead of a blue one, then that message was sent using MMS/SMS instead of iMessage. There are several reasons for this: The person that you sent the message to doesn't have an Apple device. iMessage is turned off on your device or on your recipient's device.
The blocked numbers will stay blocked as long as you do not want to unblock them. There is no such time limit such as the blocked numbers will get unblocked after a certain time. We have already stated how you can unblock blocked contacts and numbers any time you want just like you can block any number any time.
