I had to turn off imessage on my sons iphone, will he still get texts from iphones?
I had to block some numbers from my sons iphone but later found out that he was still getting & sending texts to some & I found out that was because it was iphone to iphone so it went through imessage so the verizon website told me to turn off imessage on his phone…
so I did but will he still be able to send & receive texts from other iphones?
I took care of the blocking & turning imessage off… But we have iphones in our family & close friends & I need to know if he can still get their texts on his iphone still?
Since you blocked their numbers and turned off iMessage, your son shouldn't be able to receive texts from them anymore. As for texting family and friends, he will still get the text messages except that they won't be free (the texts will show up as green instead of blue). As long as your plan has texting in it, then you don't have to worry about any extra charges.
- Will i still receive texts if I turned my iMessage off? I used up all my data this month, and I only can use iMessage in a Wi-Fi area now. So when I'm at work or school and don't get Wi-Fi, will i still get a text from someone who has an iPhone? It would just show up in green and be a regular text, right? Or would I not get it at all?
- Why does my iPhone sometimes send texts to other iPhones as iMessages then regular texts to iPhones? Like when I send a text to my friend that has an iphone, it usually sends as an iMessage then it will randomly send as just a regular text and it will be green and not blue.
- Why can't I get my sons texts? My son has an android phone (not sure which brand) and I have an iPhone 5, I can't receive his texts, I used to be able to but a month or two ago I couldn t anymore, why would this be? My wife and daughter have the same phone as my son and I receive their texts just fine. Any thoughts I why all of a sudden I can't get my sons texts?
- When sharing imessages with other iphones, can they also see green non imessage texts too? My parents and I share the same Icloud account and receive all my text messages to keep and eye on me. I know they get imessages but can they also receive the regular text messages that get sent to non iphone users?
