When you block someone on iPhone what do they see?

Do iphones tell you when someone blocks you?

Will a blocked text say delivered?
If you suspect you have indeed been blocked, first try to send a courteous text of some kind. If 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.
How can you tell if someone blocked you on iMessage?
Look underneath the last text you sent before you suspect you were blocked.

If you see an iMessage Not Delivered error instead, that can be another indication as well.
