Does this mean I’m blocked. If I text someone and it doesn’t say delivered. But instead says

“has notifications silenced “

Hello DLJ30,


The message you're seeing doesn't mean you're blocked. It means the person you trying to message has a Focus turned on and is sharing their Focus status:


When you set a Focus, the icon appears in the status bar and on your Lock Screen, and your status is automatically displayed in the Messages app. When people try to send you a message, they'll see that you've silenced notifications, but they can still notify you if it's urgent.

Take care.
