Send a text message

Text messaging allows you to send short messages composed of text and numbers. When you open up or send a new text message, the message is in conversation view. This view is similar to instant messaging —you can see the messages you sent and the replies. A single text message cannot be longer than 160 characters.

NOTE: Messages longer than 160 characters are sent as multiple text messages. A character count is visible when you compose a text messages. The character count also shows how many text messages are created when your message is sent.

1.On the Today screen, scroll to text, and then tap Compose.

2.To add a contact, tap Menu > Add Recipient, and then tap a contact. Or, enter the phone numbers of one or more recipients, separating them with a semicolon.

3.In the message body, enter your message.

TIP: To quickly add text to your message, tap Menu > My Text, and then tap the preferred text. To add your own text to the My Text list, in the My Text list tap Edit My Text Messages.

4.To check the spelling, tap Menu > Spell Check.

5.Tap Send.

NOTE: When you sync your phone to your company’s exchange server, your company may apply a policy that disables text messaging. When text messaging is disabled, you are unable to receive text messages, including messages regarding your AT&T account status. For example, you can dial *646# from your phone, and you will be sent a text message with the remaining minutes in your plan. If you are experiencing this issue, contact your IT administrator.
