If you’ve ever found youself in a situation where you felt the need to block someone’s messages, you may be wondering if there is any way to retrieve those blocked messages from your iPhone. Unfortunately, the answer is no. It is not possible to retrieve blocked messages from an iPhone once they have been blocked.
When someone that has been blocked on your iPhone sends a message to your phone, the message will not show up in your inbox and will instead be automatically deleted. The person sending the message will not be notified that they are blocked and their messages will appear as if they were sent normally.
It is important to note that blocking someone on an iPhone does not prevent them from sending messages or calling your phone; it simply prevents them from appearing in your inbox or notifications. If you wish to prevent someone from messaging or calling you altogether, you will need to contact your service provider and ask them about blocking numbers on the network level.
If you have already blocked someone and now regret it, unfortunately there is no way for you to retrieve those lost messages from your device. The only thing that can be done is for you to unblock them so that their future messages can come through normally again.
It’s important for users of iPhones and other devices to remember that blocking someone does not mean their messages are gone forever; rather, it just means they won’t appear in your inbox or notifications until they are unblocked again. If you don’t want to miss out on any important messages, it’s best not to block anyone in the first place!
Viewing Blocked Messages on an iPhone
No, unfortunately it is not possible to view past messages that were blocked on an iPhone. When a conversation has been blocked, all messages sent from the sender will be sent directly to your Block List folder and will not appear in your inbox or any other folders. Additionally, any messages you have already received from the sender prior to blocking them will also be removed from your inbox and placed in the Block List folder. This means that there is no way for you to retrieve or view these past blocked messages on an iPhone.

What Happens to Blocked Text Messages on an iPhone?
When a text message is blocked on an iPhone, the sender of the message will not receive any notification that their message has been blocked. The message will still appear to have been sent from their device but it will never show up in the recipient’s Messages app. The sender will not be able to see if their messages have been delivered or read, and the recipient won’t be able to respond. The blocked messages are essentially invisible to both parties, and are deleted from the network as soon as they’re sent.
Retrieving Blocked Messages
Retrieving blocked messages on Android phones is a simple process. First, open the Messages app and click the three dots in the top right corner of the screen. This will open a drop-down menu. From there, select “Settings” and then tap on “Block numbers and messages.” Finally, go to “Blocked messages” to view any blocked communications. You can then decide whether to keep them blocked or unblock them and read them as you would any other message.
Can Messages Sent by a Blocked Contact Be Viewed After Unblocking?
No, you cannot see blocked messages once they have been unblocked. Any messages that were sent while the contact was blocked will be permanently inaccessible, and can only be viewed if the person resends them after being unblocked.
Conclusion
In conclusion, it is not possible to retrieve messages that have been blocked on an iPhone. Once a message has been blocked, it will no longer be received or seen by the person who has blocked it. While blocking a message may be useful for a short period of time, it is not recommended as a long-term solution for managing unwanted messages. On the other hand, Android users have the option of viewing and retrieving blocked messages from their Messages app.
