Imessage and texting on iphone 5s?
Okay so I have LIMITED data. Even better I share it with my cousin… Yeah it sucks.
SO PROBLEM! : I have other friends who have iphones and they use imessage a lot. And when I turn imessage off on my phone I can't receive anything from them…
I don't want to turn it one because this chicka needs to save her data! But when I turn it ON I can only send them messages threw the whole imessage thing.
SO MY QUESTION! : is there a way to set it where I can have it on just to get their messages and NOT have to text them back with imessage?
I had an issue with this with a lady I almost worked for and she wanted to be able to text me and I never got anything from here.____. Prefer to avoid that problem as much as possible. But if I ever run out of data (which is likely because its a small plan) i don't know what to do.
Lol you don't need to turn off iMessage if you don't want to reply and use data then don't reply and it won't use data.
If they have an iphone if you turn off data it should send as text message. If they have ipod/ipad you do need internet
- Why isn't my iphone texting other iphones through imessage? It's updated and so is the person I'm texting. I'm able to text some iphones but not other ones. Even iphones that are new text through the SMS thing. Why?
- Verizon-no unlimited-will texting a iTouch with iMessage cost me? I'm So CONFUSED… i have the iPhone 4 on Verizon and i use iMessage and regular SMS. I have no unlimited texting WHICH MEANS i can text any Verizon phone for free but if i text any other carrier it is pulled into my 500 count. SO if i text an iPod Touch user that uses iMessage will it get pulled into my 500 count? Cuz the iPod Touches don't have a carrier… So i don't know what to think.
- Texting notification to the person I'm texting? How do I change on my iPhone 5s so the person I'm texting doesn't see that I'm texting them with the bubble
