Why are my text messeges coming icloud?

I jus got a new iPhone 6+ n did the who set up n activation thing n now wen ever I send someone a text it sends from my icloud. Can I turn this of in settings some how? It's a new iOS 8 thing? What's the purpose of that anyway?

Yeah it in settings iMessage sucks to turn it off though

Do you mean iMessage? Are the chat bubbles blue? If so then it's sending to another iDevice. You can go into settings, messages and edit the settings to your liking, if you don't want then then turn off iMessage.

  • Text messages coming up as iMessages? When I try to text my friend who doesn't have an iPhone, it comes up as iMessage, so when I send it, she doesn't receive it. Why is it doing this?
  • How do you stop calls coming from one device coming to your device from iCloud (apple iPhone)? I'm 13 and i don't have a credit card so i use my mums account and since my phone and her phone has the same icloud, her calls come into MY phone and i've tried making a new apple id but it won't work so how can i stop it (i've already logged out on my phone) so how can i stop it?
  • Snapchat verification text not coming through? Downloaded snapchat on iPhone 5 and trying to get contacts on it but I put my number in and it said it had sent me a text and I haven't received this, I have re installed it and tried a few times but the same thing is happening
  • IPhone text messages not coming through? I have an iPhone 5 - at&t service. My brother (iphone 5) and mother (Samsung something?) text me all the time and I don't get it! I get messages from my cousin (she has an android - sprint). This guy told me today he texted me and I didn't get a message! Is there anyway I can change settings? Do I not get it because of ios7? Anyone have this problem?
