What does it mean when your iMessage goes from blue to green?

When your iMessage goes from blue to green, it means that you are no longer sending messages through Apple’s iMessage service. Instead, your message is now being sent as a standard text message. Green is the color that indicates a text message and is used in the Messages app on iOS devices to signify a standard SMS text message.

The blue color indicates an iMessage sent over either the cellular data network or Wi-Fi.

If your message is going from blue to green, it may mean that the recipient no longer has an iPhone or is not connected to an active cellular or Wi-Fi data connection. This can typically occur when an iPhone user switches to a different type of phone that does not support iMessage, or when the iPhone is unable to remain connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi network.

If your messages are frequently switching from blue to green, it may be a good idea to double-check with your intended recipients to make sure they are still using an iPhone and have an active data connection.

Do blocked iMessages turn green?

No, blocked iMessages will not turn green. This color change is specific to text messages (also known as SMS messages). When you block a contact, their iMessages will no longer be delivered to your iPhone, but that doesn’t affect the color of the message bubbles.

Instead of turning green, blocked iMessages appear as blue and don’t have the “Delivered” indicator below them. If you have any doubts, you can go to Settings > Messages > Blocked and make sure that the contact is listed there.

If they are and they’ve sent you an iMessage, it will remain blue, not green.

When you’re blocked on iPhone does it go green?

No, when you’re blocked on an iPhone, it does not go green. When a person is blocked on an iPhone, the device will not allow any calls, messages, or FaceTime from the blocked contact to go through. There are no visual indicators to show that the contact has been blocked; the only way to know if the contact has been blocked is if they cannot get through to you.

When outgoing calls, messages, or FaceTime attempts are made, the blocked contact will not receive any notification that the attempt was unsuccessful.

How do you know if you’ve been blocked on iMessage?

You can tell that you’ve been blocked on iMessage if you’re trying to send a message to someone but the message never gets delivered. If your messages are consistently not getting delivered, you may have been blocked.

Additionally, if you write a message to someone and the sent message bubble shows a “Delivered” label then appears underneath, however you’re unable to see any Read receipt, or the Read receipt appears after a long delay, you may also be blocked.

Finally, if you are trying to call someone and you get a message that says your number has been blocked, then you have definitely been blocked. It’s also possible that you might be blocked if you are unable to see the user’s profile picture or if the user’s profile name appears as “Anonymous”.

What happens when someone blocks you on iMessage?

When someone blocks you on iMessage, this means that you will no longer be able to send that person any messages, view their “last seen” tag, or receive any messages from them. If you try to send a message to the person who has blocked you, you will at first see the message as “delivered,” however this message will never actually be delivered to the recipient.

As well, you will no longer be able to see the person’s profile page on iMessage, or even the messages that they sent you prior to blocking you.

An alternative explanation is that the person may have simply turned off iMessage on their device, in which case you will be unable to send them any messages, but will not see their “last seen” tag or their profile page.

However, you will still be able to view messages that were sent before the person switched off iMessage.

It is important to note that when someone blocks you, they are likely doing so in order to stop you from contacting them in any way. Therefore, it is important to respect their request and not attempt to contact them further, or even send them messages after they have blocked you.

What does the other person see when you block them on iMessage?

When you block someone on iMessage, the other person will no longer be able to see any messages from you. They will be unable to view your profile or send any messages or reactions to you. They will not receive any notification that you blocked them, but if they search for you in iMessage, they will not be able to find your profile.

Additionally, any group conversations that you’re both in will no longer display your messages or your name.

Why did it turn from blue to green when I just texted iPhone to iPhone?

When you text an iPhone to iPhone, the color of the conversation bubbles will change depending on the conversation history. The change will depend on the length of the conversation and the last message sent.

If a conversation has been going on for quite some time, then the conversation color will “turn green” to indicate that the conversation has been going on for awhile. This is more of a visual indicator and doesn’t necessarily mean anything else other than a visual cue to the fact that the conversation has been going on for awhile.

Why is iMessage green to another iPhone?

iMessage is green to another iPhone user because the messages are sent through Apple’s servers using your data connection rather than using your cell network provider. When using your cell network provider, SMS messages appear in blue bubbles.

However, when using the iMessage service, messages are sent over the data signal, which appears in green bubbles. This helps distinguish between iMessage messages and traditional SMS messages so that users can differentiate between the two.

In addition, having the messages appear in green also helps set iMessage apart from other messaging platforms like Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, and others, which all appear in other colors.

Am I blocked if iMessage sent as text?

No, you are not blocked if your iMessage is sent as text. iMessage is a feature of Apple’s messaging service that allows users to send messages over Wi-Fi or cellular data networks to other users who have an Apple device with iMessage enabled.

When sent as a text, iMessage is sent as an SMS message and does not require both users to have an Apple device. As long as the recipient has a device capable of receiving text messages, the iMessage sent as a text should go through.
