Text Messaging (SMS)

With text messaging (SMS), you can send and receive text messages between your phone and another messaging-ready phone. When you receive a new message, it will automatically display on your phone’s screen.

In addition, text messaging includes a variety of preset messages, such as “The meeting has been cancelled,” that make composing messages fast and easy. Use your phone to customize your own preset messages (up to 50 characters).

Text messages can be composed of up to six segments of 160 characters each, for a total of 960 characters per text message. The current segment and total segment count is displayed at the top of each segment. For example, (5/6) at the top of a segment would indicate you are viewing segment five of a six- segment message.

Note See your service plan for applicable charges for text or SMS voice messaging.
