How do I write a new message? Can I attach a photo or video?
Go to the Apps screen and tap
Messages
. Then tap
New
, type the phone number or name of the
contact you want to message, and then write your message. To add a photo or video attachment, tap
Attach
. You’ll go to the Camera app where you can capture a new photo or video, or attach one
already saved. Read more in “Create a new message” on page 77.
Note:
You can only share a video from the Messages app, not from the Spot.
Will I receive a notification when I get a new message?
Yes. No matter what you’re doing on your phone, a notification will pop up when you receive a new
message. Tap the notification to open the conversation and read the message.
What’s the limit on sending photos and videos via MMS?
If you want to send photos or videos to a phone number via MMS, you can attach up to five photos or
one video (you can’t combine media types). The total size of an MMS message is limited to 1.2 MB.
How do I decide whether to send something via text or MMS message?
You don’t have to worry about it. Just compose your message and add any attachments; your phone
will automatically select the right way to send. In general, when you send a message that’s just text, it
will be sent by text message; when you attach media to your message, it will be sent by MMS. If you
address your message to more than one person, the message will switch to MMS; you can switch it
back to text by tapping
Switch
>
Text
in the menu.
Note:
Text messages are also known as SMS (Short Message Service) messages.
