Composing Text Messages

The Compose screen opens.
3. Fill in one or more recipients. You can:
Enter phone numbers directly in the To field. If
you’re sending the message to several phone
numbers, separate the phone numbers with a
comma. As you enter information, any matching
phone numbers from your contacts list are
displayed. Tap a match to enter that number or
address directly.
Tap the icon, and then select the phone
numbers of the contacts to whom you want to
send the message. You can also select contact
groups as recipients. When you have selected all
the message recipients, tap
Done.
4. Tap the “Tap to add text” box and then start
composing your message.
5. When done, tap to send the text message.
Note: A counter appears at the top of the Send button( ) to
tell you how many characters you have entered and
how many characters are left. Once you go over the
160-character limit, a new message is created but
automatically joined into one when received.
