Now let’s see if you have been blocked.

Check Your Chat History

If you can’t see any of the messages and snaps you’ve sent to your friend, or if their name and profile picture has disappeared, it’s a good sign that you’ve been blocked.

Search For Their Username

Another way to see if you have been blocked, search for the username or name of the person you think blocked you. And if it does not appear on the search, this might also be a sign you’ve been blocked.

But sometimes it’s not 100% certain, a deleted or deactivated can cause their names to not appear in search.

How to Search For Username On Snapchat

Open Snapchat app
Tap the search icon next to your Snapchat Bitmoji or profile icon.

Deleted Or Deactivated Their Account

If you have been on good terms with someone and suddenly, the person cuts off communication with you. There are chances that the account was deleted or they deactivated it. Or they’re using another account under a new name.

You might as well have been blocked. Although, the probabilities are either way.

Use An Alternate Account

If you still have doubts, this method is the only way to be sure that you have been blocked on Snapchat.

Use a friend’s phone or an alternate account and search for the username or their names. If the name appears on your friend’s phone, you have been blocked.

But on the other hand, when the name does not appear on the alternate account. Then, there’s a higher chance that the account has been deleted.

Check Snapchat Friends List

You can also confirm if someone blocked you by checking your Snapchat contact list. If the name does not appear on your contact or friend list. There are chances that this person has either unfriended or blocked you.

How To Know If Someone Unfriended You On Snapchat
