If you aren't using iMessage, you can use SMS/MMS. These messages are texts and photos that you send to other cell phones or another iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. SMS/MMS messages aren't encrypted and appear in green text bubbles on your device. To use SMS/MMS on an iPhone, you need a text-messaging plan.
If you're talking about the number that show up in auto-complete when you start typing a number in messages, blue are contacts with whom you've exchanged iMessages recently, green are those with whom you've exchanged SMS messages recently and grey are people with whom you have not exchanged messages recently.
If the chat bubble is green, that could indicate someone has blocked you, especially if your chats with this person used to be blue. However, this is only true if both of you use iMessage on iPhones. If the other person switched to an Android phone, their bubble may have turned green (plus, they may have a new number).
For green messages, the texts that are sent are compatible with a wider range of phones and receiving services than blue iMessage texts. Since Android and other carriers operate within the SMS and MMS standards of text communication, these green texts are more versatile in who they can reach with their texts.
A green text message on your iPhone isn't a sign that your phone number was blocked, or that the text was not delivered. Instead, it means that the message was sent as a standard SMS message rather than an iMessage, which will appear as blue.
Green Means a Business Verified by Truecaller
If the screen turns green, it means that a business verified by Truecaller is calling you. This feature, known as Truecaller for Business, ensures that the caller is actually calling from the company they claim to represent.
Grey Contacts using the Messages app? This means you cannot text them. If the contact is green you can send them MMS/SMS and blue contacts mean you can send them iMessages.
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. Bp1421 wrote: My BF & I got into an argument & now when I try to text him my texts turn from blue to green.
A green bubble simply means you are sending her a message through cellular SMS communications. It does not mean you're blocked. It's on for iMessage.
No, it doesn't mean that the text won't go through or hasn't gone through. Instead, a green text message on an iPhone is an SMS message that has been delivered to a phone that is not an iPhone or Apple device (ie. an Android).
If it's green, it's an ordinary text message and doesn't offer the read/delivered receipts.
If you see a green message bubble instead of a blue one, then that message was sent using MMS/SMS instead of iMessage. There are several reasons for this: The person that you sent the message to doesn't have an Apple device. iMessage is turned off on your device or on your recipient's device.
Green messages are ordinary SMS text messages, while blue messages are using Apple's proprietary iMessage format. If you're used to seeing blue iMessage text bubbles but they are suddenly green, it can be an indication you've been blocked – but that's just one possibility, and isn't necessarily the most likely.
When you block a phone number or contact, they can still leave a voicemail, but you won't get a notification. Messages that are sent or received won't be delivered. Also, the contact won't get a notification that the call or message was blocked. When you block an email address from Mail, it goes to the trash folder.
Check if Your Contact Has Turned On iMessage
Check if your contact has enabled iMessage by following these steps. Step 1: Open the Settings app on iPhone. Step 2: Scroll down and tap on Messages. Step 3: Scroll down and check if the toggle next to iMessage is enabled.
iMessage is available only on Apple devices through the Messages app. It feels to users like an instant messaging service and is similar to SMS in that the message format looks the same. But iMessage can only be used between Apple users (you can't send an iMessage to an Android phone).
Fix problems sending or receiving messages from specific contacts. Delete the contact and add it again. Check if you blocked them. Verify that their phone number is correct.
Android users may determine if someone has blocked their number by checking notifications. If the “sent” icon changes to “delivered,” the receiver is likely not blocked you. On the other hand, if it stays on “sent,” there's a good chance they have blocked your number.
Neither iPhones nor Androids have a feature that will tell you if your number has been blocked. The only way to know for certain would be to ask the person you suspect, but you may not want to do that because they may not want to talk to you.
'Sent' isn't always a bad thing – but that 'sent' badge never changing to 'delivered' suggests your number has been blocked. More to the point, if you're messaging someone via iMessage and your text bubbles suddenly change to green from blue, it's a sign they have blocked your iPhone number.
The name connected to the number (if not suggested by users already) is done based on sources like user-profiles and public partnerships. Additionally, users who register on our app can choose how they want to appear on the Caller ID by filling in their names.
