Snapchat's all about instant connection, so what happens when that connection suddenly vanishes? Figuring out if you've been blocked can be tricky, but here's the lowdown.
**The Easiest (But Not Always Definitive) Clue:** Search for their username. If you can't find them *at all*, it's a strong indicator. However, they might have just deleted their account.
**Digging Deeper: Check Past Conversations.** If you can see past chats but can't send new snaps, and their profile picture disappears (replaced by a gray silhouette), that's a red flag. This alone isn’t proof, as they might've unfriended you.
**The Ultimate Test (But Requires a Second Opinion):** Ask a mutual friend to search for their username. If *they* can find the person but you still can't, it's almost certain you've been blocked.
Remember, these are indicators, not guarantees. Ultimately, Snapchat doesn't explicitly notify you if you're blocked. If you're unsure, consider respecting their potential need for space and moving on.
