Using SMS Text Messaging

With SMS Text Messaging, you can use a person’s wireless phone number to send instant text messages from your Sprint PCS Phone to their messaging-ready phone – and they can send messages to you. When you receive a new message, it will automatically display on your phone’s screen.

In addition, SMS Text Messaging includes a variety of pre-set messages, such as “I’m running late, I’m on my way”, that make composing messages fast and easy. You can also customize your own pre-set messages (up to 160 characters) from your Sprint PCS Phone or at www.sprintpcs.com.
