To check your blocked list on the Facebook app, you'll need to access the Settings menu. Tap the hamburger menu, which is located at the bottom of the screen on iOS devices and at the top on Android devices.

From the menu, select the Settings gear and scroll down to the Blocking option. Here, you'll find the list of Blocked People on your Facebook account. You can unblock users or add new users to the block list from this page.

Here's a summary of the steps to view your blocked list on the Facebook app:

If you're having trouble figuring out if someone has blocked you on Facebook, don't worry, it's not uncommon. One way to check is by trying to view their profile page; if you can't access it, you might be blocked.

To confirm, try accessing their profile using another Facebook account – if you see the same prompt, it likely means their account is deactivated or set to private.

If you're unable to find them on Facebook search, it could be a sign that they've blocked you. However, this method alone can't confirm if you've been blocked, as the target account might be deleted or deactivated.

Another way to check is by trying to invite them to a group or event on Facebook – if their name doesn't appear, it could mean you're blocked. Before you worry, consider other reasons, like changes to their privacy settings or a temporary Facebook break.

You can also try messaging them on Facebook Messenger; if you can't send messages and see a "Couldn't Send" alert, it might indicate you've been blocked. However, being unfriended or having their account deactivated can create similar issues, so be sure to check those possibilities first.
