Sending and Receiving Text Messages
Creating and Sending a Text Message
Each text message can hold up to 160 characters. To save time, you can select from predefined My Text phrases, such as “Call me” or “On my way.” You can add your own My Text phrases, and if you prefer, you can enter the full message text too.
