Can you text anyone with an iphone for free?

I'm in a group chat with two other people, and I live in Canada but they live in the usa. I've always had an ipod but i'm finally getting a phone. I was just wondering if I can text for free to them or will it charge extra. My phone provider is roger's and I'm getting the iphone 5c. They also both have iphones.

Added (1). I was wonder for texting not calling and will it charge extra if I text them over internet

I'm in the UK so don't know if you can text Canada free from the US, however… If you can't, there's a free App I use called VIBER which enables you to make free international calls and texts to anywhere as long as the people you are calling or texting have the App too.

Most data packages now include free texting. Check the fine print on your monthly invoice or log into your account on-line. Doesn't matter if you have an iphone or android

Yes as long as you text another iphone. You can even setup texting on an ipod touch or ipad without having any cell contract as it will send over Wi-Fi. Its free internationally also.

IMessage is free so yes. Just text them normally and iMessage will take over.

  • Why would Sprint text me a link for a free iPhone 5s that is not entirely free? 1. I received a text message from Sprint stating that I qualify for a free iPhone 5s. 2. I called Sprint's 1-800 number and confirmed with them on three separate occasions the phone was free and there would be no change to my bill. 3. They sent me the phone and upon activation tell me that my bill will go up $15 plus tax. Obviously, I returned the phone. The charge would make my bill go up $15 per month plus tax.
  • What is a app like i message except you can text with anyone? Were i live i don't have much service at my house but i do have Wi-Fi what's a good app to text with that you don't have to use another number. ( I want to use my same number i don't want to have to have more then one) so basically like imessage except they don't need a iphone to text with you.
  • What happens when you block someone on an iPhone 6, and they text you or call you? Specifically, does the phone keep ringing or does it say the call can't be made? Does the text deliver and just never show up on the receiving phone, or does the sender get a message saying the text can't be sent? (The other phone is not an iPhone.)
  • How can you get revenge on a man that hurt you and beat you so bad take your money and humiliate you in front of his friends? I helped this man countless times when he was in need financially never hurt him. I admit not perfect got drunk and said things I regret. But he hit me kick me in my stomach took my iPhones and sold them. He cuss and insulted me all because I said some things that I didn't like about him and yes I insulted his family by saying they weren't ****. Anyone can tell me how I get revenge on a man that hurt so bad when all I did was help him?
