How to check if someone has blocked your number on an Android phone

If an Android user blocks your phone number, your text messages will still go through, but they will not be delivered to that Android user. The same is true for iPhone; you can see if your number is blocked on anyone’s phone. The simplest way to find out if your phone number is blocked on other phones is to call them.

If this happens repeatedly, it means your phone number has been blocked on that person’s phone.
