When you text someone who has blocked you on iPhone, the message sends as usual from your end, but it won’t be delivered to the recipient. On your side, it might appear as though the message was sent successfully, possibly even showing a 'Delivered' status beneath the text in some cases, but the person who has blocked you will not receive the message. There's no notification or indication provided to you that you've been blocked.
