Q: When someone blocks you or puts you on Do Not Disturb do iMessages send as normal just not get delivered?

Do Not Disturb will not turn them to green as they are delivered but no sound or notification goes through while Do Not Disturb is on. I am not 100% sure but I don't think blocking exhibits this behavior either. As far as I know to the sender nothing appears to be different but the receiver wouldn't ever get the message.

Edit: After some further research it appears that if you are on iOS 8 then it would try to send the message as an iMessage (blue) and attempt to send. After a couple of minutes it would resend as an SMS (green). However, with iOS 9 it will immediately show as delivered and remain blue. Either way, the person that has blocked you will never receive the messages.

Blue or Green has nothing to do with being blocked. Blue means iMessage, i.e., messages sent through Apple, Green means messages sent through SMS.

My BF & I got into an argument & now when I try to text him my texts turn from blue to green. Is this an indication of being blocked or on Do Not Disturb? Thanks for y'alls help!

If the recipient of your messages has their phone on DND (or just your conversation, the messages will go through as normal but the recipient will not be notified. When they look at their Messages app, they'll be able to see that you've sent messages.

If the recipient has you blocked, everything will look normal on your end but the messages will never be delivered. They will never appear on the recipient's phone.

As noted, the color of the messages tells you nothing about whether or not the recipient is seeing your messages.

So why when I type a message it starts as blue but turns to green only when I text him?

When imessage is unavailable it will send it as a text message, usually the receiver is in an area with a weak wifi or cellular signal or has imessage turned off.  that is no indication that you've been blocked or he has do not disturb on.

this all can be rectify if you simply give him a call and ask if you've been blocked.

thata why I was asking bc we've gotten into fights before and he's blocked me but it always sent as iMessage as normal he just clearly never recieved it. The texts going from blue to green have been going on since last night so I was just curious as to why it was doing that. Maybe his data is off?

That could be another reason too, however I would assume he would connect to wif if cellular data I turned off.

but who knows what the situation is on the other side, but I do know for sure that imessage is working as it should.

What color the bubble turns has nothing to do with whether or not you've been blocked or placed on DND. Turning his data off just to avoid you seems a bit extreme, especially when there are better options. Perhaps his phone is broken. Perhaps he joined a monastery with no internet service. The simple fact of the matter is that, until you can ask him, you're not going to know.

So what did the earlier user mean when they said that on iOS 8 it will attempt to send as iMessage but then send as a text but on iOS 9 it will look like a normal iMessage when sending but just never deliver? Sorry I have so many questions lol

Are you on iOS 8 or iOS 9? If you are on iOS 8 then it will attempt to send as an iMessage but then send as an SMS of you are blocked. If you are on iOS 9 then it won't look any different. See the following article:

http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/mobile-phone/have-i-been-blocked-in-ios-7-who- blocked-me-ios-8-iphone-ios-9-3476005/

Specifically look at the section labeled "Have I been I been blocked by an iPhone: What happens to a blocked text message?"

I have no idea what that user meant. It doesn't correspond to anything in my experience. If you have Settings>Messages>Send as SMS enabled, when an iMessage fails to send as an iMessage, it will be tried again as an SMS. My experience is that this generally works as designed. But, again, it's not related to the person on the other end blocking you or putting you on DND.

To reiterate: There is no way, on your end, for you to tell if you have been blocked or if his phone is on DND in any fashion.

See my post above with the linked article. In iOS 8 it did try to send as an iMessage but then send as an SMS instead if you were blocked. Now with iOS 9 it will remain as an iMessage.
