Do picture messages use data on the iPhone with Verizon?

I just got the iPhone 5 with Verizon on friday with a 2GB data allowance per month plan. If I send and receive picture messages, do they count towards my 2GB or are texts and picture messages counted separately from my data pool?

It is counted as its own class. Called MMS. Also you WILL get charged extra if it is not in your contract.

  • Why do iPhone messages come up as picture messages on other phones? When my friend sends me texts, she has an iphone, they come up as picture messages and i can't revieve them on my phone because my plan doesn't cover picture messages. Can she change the settings so it won't come up as a picture?
  • Which picture edit app (for the iPhone) do you use to naturally remove any human being? He photobombed himself in my picture?

Does anybody have any recommendations (ideas) for any picture edit app I can use to edit him out? He's standing on the right side of me. (which I can see he ruined the moment for me.) P.S. Yes, I like to take pictures with other cosplayers.

My bill shows 3 separate categories for minutes which are unlimited, messaging which is unlimited and data which is 2GB. Where do picture messages fall?
