How do you tell if you're blocked on iMessage?

Look underneath the last text you sent before you suspect you were blocked.

What happens when someone blocks you on iMessage?

If someone has blocked you on their iPhone, they won't receive your call. Once you dial their number, the phone will ring once and then go straight to voicemail.
