Most of us remember getting those calls: “Your car’s warranty is about to expire…”, whether we have a car or not. Aside from going to DoNotCall.gov<\/a> or calling 1-888-382-1222 to be added to a do-not-call list, you can also block specific phone numbers from your phone. <\/p>\n

Also: How to find out if an AirTag is tracking you<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

But what about if you need to block someone you know, like a coworker, a neighbor, or an old flame? Can they tell you’ve blocked them? We’ll walk you through the ways that someone may be able to tell if their number has been blocked.<\/p>\n

Can someone tell if I block their number?<\/h2>\n

First things first, if you block someone’s number, they won’t find out right away, if at all. They won’t get a notification saying they were blocked and won’t be able to see it plainly anywhere, but they can infer it and assume they’ve been blocked. There are ways a person can figure out if they’ve been blocked, like sending you texts and calling you. <\/p>\n

\n
<\/p>\n
\n
\n

If you and the other person you blocked both use iPhones, your text message exchange is through iMessage, so they show up in blue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

This text is delivered as an iMessage so it comes up in blue and says Delivered, which means your number isn’t blocked<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If they weren’t blocked and decided to send you a text message, it would show up blue and say Delivered<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

After blocking my number on the other phone, the message was delivered as a text instead of an iMessage<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If the text message looks green, it was sent as an SMS instead of an iMessage. The other person may also see Not Delivered<\/strong> in red under the green text bubble, or the message may go through as an iMessage and just not show if it was Delivered<\/strong>. These changes can all be clues to the other person they may have blocked.<\/p>\n

However, an iMessage can also show up in green or not show as Delivered<\/strong> when someone’s phone is off or doesn’t have a signal or internet connection. So, the other party may assume something like that has happened before assuming they’ve been blocked. <\/p>\n

\n
<\/p>\n
\n
\n

When someone thinks they’re blocked, it’s all about putting the pieces together to determine if the other person has blocked their number. If you call someone who hasn’t blocked your number, you typically hear several rings before their phone goes to voicemail.<\/p>\n

When you call a number that has blocked yours, you may hear one or half a ring or no rings at all, and then the call will go to voicemail. If it goes straight to voicemail, their phone may also be off or out of range, or they may have temporarily turned on Do Not Disturb<\/strong> mode to work, drive, or sleep.<\/p>\n

If the person you blocked calls your number, they’ll go to voicemail and can leave a message, but you won’t get a missed call or voicemail notification.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

If the blocked party’s messages are delivered as text when they used to be iMessages and their calls consistently go straight to voicemail, they may try calling you from a different number or hiding their number. They can hide their number by dialing *67 before your phone number, and the call will come in as No Caller ID.<\/p>\n

If the blocked caller gets through from a different number or by hiding their number, then they’ll probably be pretty certain you have blocked them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

For my peace of mind, I wouldn’t answer No Caller ID calls after blocking someone unless I was expecting an important call.<\/p>\n

If you’re the person that’s been blocked, keep in mind that though no one wants to find themselves being blocked by another person, especially if it’s someone you care about, the best thing to do is to allow that person the privacy and time to process their needs for doing so. <\/p>\n

FAQs<\/h2>\n

Can someone tell if I blocked their number on Android?
<\/h2>\n

Android is not as straightforward as iPhone when figuring out if someone blocked you. Since there is no iMessage in Android, it’s a little trickier to determine. Some phones offer read and delivered receipts, so if that’s the case for yours and the blocked person’s phone and they’re not seeing the receipts, they may try doing some digging. <\/p>\n

Also: The NSA advises you to turn your phone off and back on once a week – here’s why<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Either way, if their calls to your number don’t go through and they hide their number to call you and do get through, they will likely figure out you blocked their number regardless of delivered or read receipts.<\/p>\n

Does blocking a phone number block it on WhatsApp?
<\/h2>\n

When you block someone’s number, you won’t receive their calls, texts, or voicemail notifications. But if you also use WhatsApp to communicate, their number won’t be automatically blocked on the messaging app. <\/p>\n

WhatsApp works independently of your phone manufacturer and provider. You’ll have to block someone from contacting you via WhatsApp within the app. <\/p>\n

Also: Keep your iPhone super secure. This app shows you how<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Going to the contact info in WhatsApp and tapping on Block<\/strong> (this person) will do the trick.<\/p>\n

How do I know if someone blocked me on WhatsApp?
<\/h2>\n

If you think someone has blocked you on WhatsApp, you can message them to check. When someone receives a WhatsApp message, two checks will show up when it’s been delivered, and they’ll turn blue when it’s been read. If only one gray checkmark comes up, the message hasn’t been delivered to the recipient.<\/p>\n

Also: Missing notifications on Android? Try this hidden trick (that’s also an accessibility feature)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

It may not be delivered if that person isn’t connected to the internet or their phone is off. If you have other reasons to think they might have blocked you on WhatsApp, give it a couple of days, and if the checkmark never doubles, they probably have.<\/p>\n

Can someone tell if I block their number on a landline?<\/h2>\n

If you’re getting unwanted calls on your landline, you may wonder if someone can tell if you’ve blocked their number, whether you did it with a call blocker or through your phone carrier. 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. The response they hear will depend on the carrier. <\/p>\n

The blocked caller can’t leave a voicemail on a landline like they’d be able to when blocked on your iPhone, for example. Their call simply won’t go through.<\/p>\n
