How can I tell if my text message was delivered? There is no "delivered" note at the bottom (of the green bubble).

To extend on Templeton's answer, there is no delivered or read notification for SMS. However, SMS is about the most bulletproof cellular communication. It will work even when voice calls won't. So, unless the recipient has their phone off or it is in some way disabled, the odds are good that they got it.

The only wat to know would be to ask the person.

Hi... you should see the bar at the top move to the right and then disappear indicating it's gone. If it's not delivered you'll get a red ! against the message. If you hold the message bubble and shift the bubble to the left you'll then see a time stamp which is when the message was sent. As to checking if the person received it, not sure. Can only suggest the above to confirm it left you.
