IMessage is a special mode for receiving and sending SMS on devices with the iOS operating system. It is activated from the appropriate section in the settings menu of your phone or tablet.
Instructions
Step 1
Go to the main menu of your device and select "Settings". Click on the "Messages" tab. Activate iMessage on this screen by sliding the toggle slider to the On position. If it is already in the correct position, then iMessage has already been activated earlier.
Step 2
Enter your Apple ID account settings as soon as “Waiting for Activation” appears on the screen. You will need the username and password that you use in the AppStore or iTunes to successfully complete this step.
Step 3
Accept the terms of use of this service, and also agree that the operator may charge a fee for additional messaging functions on your phone. As soon as the activation is complete, the system will inform you that you can now exchange messages between iPhone, iPod and iPad devices.
Step 4
Set the iMessage options you want. The first of them is the item "Read report". Turn it on if you want to notify other users to read their messages.
Step 5
Activate Send as SMS to send regular messages if iMessage is unavailable. For example, situations like this occur if there is no active internet connection required to send iMessage. You can also choose to send MMS messages instead of iMessage or simple SMS.
Step 6
Try sending iMessage by selecting this option in your address book. The "Show Topic" section at the top of the screen displays the topic of the current conversation. In the line "Number of characters" you can see how many letters and other characters your message contains. Write the text you want. If necessary, attach an image or video to it. Send a message. Its text will be reflected in the current dialogue with this subscriber.
