Messaging App options

Are there any messages app that you can view messages from a blocked number as well as be able to see call attempts from blocked numbers as well as the RCS messaging? The messaging app I used on my old Samsung Galaxy S9+. I am currently using a samsung S24 Ultra and the google messages app does not have those features.

That is a good question. Can you go online and look for the prior app from your other phone and load it into your new one?

If you blocked them why do you want to see them? The wole point of blocking is to not see them. Google messages has a spam and blocked folder that they may end up in. But that's if you blocked them in the app. If you have spam and block on in the phone app, the calls will not ring rhrough, but should show up in your call list as rejected calls. If you had an app on your old phone, why can't you download it to your new phone?

Thats what I was hoping for was a blocked folder but I dont see where the blocked folder is located. ??? My old phone used Samsung Massages which they are getting rid of.

If you click on your initial in Google messages, you will see "spam and blocked". Tapping that will bring you to the spam folder.

You're trying to check the msgs from blocked contacts....Only way to do that is in the Samsung app...thats why I didn't used the update. I want those numbers blocked for a reason.

There is a folder for the blocked and spam messages in the google messages app settings. Spam & Blocked that shows the messages that were blocked.

It contains messages the algorithm sees as spam, as well as messages from blocked numbers. If there are messages there that you did not block and are not spam, you can mark them as not spam and they will return to your main feed.

I have the Samsung S23 Ultra & mine has a folder in the texts app that has a folder for blocked numbers, so if someone I have blocked texts you, the messages automatically go to that folder, but you are not notified about the message. I never paid attention to it until one day I was just playing with my phone & clicked on it and saw text messages from someone I had blocked. Also, under the VM, they can leave VM (I use the visual VM), but you are not notified of it. My question is that if you want to text the number you blocked, will the blocked number receive the text you send, or do you have to unblock them first and then reblock them again. I just need to tell this person something important that I just need to get off my chest and I want them to know that I know everything and what they did to me, but that's it, no communication otherwise. I just want to tell this person I know, and I will make sure it never happens to another person again. Just for me to feel better. I've seen so many things that say Android allows the locker to call or text the blockee, but the blockee cannot contact the blocker. Other things I've seen no, that you have to unblock them first, which I prefer not to do. And if so, how long do you have to wait before blocking them again to ensure they receive the message, because once they are blocked, they can no longer see the messages.
