Messages may display as delivered even if you're blocked because the messaging system often only verifies that the message reached the receiver’s server or device, but not necessarily that it was seen by the recipient. Once blocked, future messages typically do not reach the recipient, but the status may not update accordingly on your end.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What happens to messages sent after blocking someone? Messages sent after you've blocked someone typically do not reach their device, and you may not receive any delivery confirmations.
  2. How can I tell if I've been blocked? If your messages consistently show as delivered but are not responded to, you may have been blocked.
  3. Why does a message appear delivered but not read? A delivered message indicates it reached the recipient's server or device, but it doesn't confirm that they have seen it.
