Why does my iPhone 4 send my text message in two parts?

When i'm texting on my iPhone 4, it obviously shows me at the top that it's sending and it makes the little noise to show you it sent but sometimes it'll make the noise twice and all my friends tell me they'll get my texts and they'll get almost the whole text and it'll send another one with the last one or two words from the previous text. And i was thinking maybe it was over 1t60 characters or something and then i realized none of the texts i were sending were over 160 characters… Does anyone know what the problem is and what i can do to fix it, please? I don't like that.

I'm not sure my iPhone 4 does that too its annoying I used to think it was because it was too long but i don't know anymore

Maybe the text is too long.

  • Will my message be delivered if sent as text message on iphone? My friend said that she was having phone problems earlier today. My message was being sent as an imessage, but I guess she wasn't receiving everyone of them, just getting the notifications that they were sent to her but she couldn't read them. I then responded to her, but it was sent as a text message this time and i have gotten no response. I'm not as much concerned about her responding or not, I just want to know if she will receive the message.
  • Why won't my iPhone send pictures as a text message? I'm signed up for the unlimited everything plan on sprint. But for more than a few months now my iPhone stopped letting me send pictures as text messages. Every time I try to send a picture as a text (not an iMesaage) I get a text saying "SprintFreeMsg: The account holder has restricted access to this feature on this phone". Why is it doing this, and how can I fix it? Mms is not turned off Mms is not turned off
  • Why won't my 5c send a message as MMS when it's a long message to a non iPhone user? Whenever I type a LONG message to an SMS user (says Text Message in the messaging "box") my 5c won't convert to MMS and the recipient gets the message in dozens of out of order messages instead of the whole fluid message. I have MMS on in Settings. What can I do and why is it doing this?
  • Why could i have gotten a text message with no text box? Yesterday morning, I looked at my smart phone ( android) and I got a text from someone. I clicked on the contact's text and there was no message, no blank bubble, nothing. It just looked like one of us was getting ready to start a conversation but no message was sent. (Extra info: I may be wrong but I think this certain contact has an iphone.) What could cause this? I don't want to ask the person because it would be extremely awkward.
