As a blogger and media influencer, I have a strong passion for the iPhone. I have used different iPhone series (6, 6s, 6s Plus, 8, X, and currently 11 Pro). You can imagine that, friends. I don’t just love iPhones for their speed and security, but for their smooth messaging interface.

This post centres on how to send sms from an iPhone to other iPhone users and those using other devices.

How to Send SMS from iPhone

To send sms from an iPhone, you need to have a clear view of what the content of the message would be. You may not have the complete words, sentence structure or writing style to complement the SMS. However, just have the subject matter of what you want to send.

Of course, you need to know the content of the SMS, and after that, who the recipient of the SMS will be. Who are you sending this message to?  The recipient of the message has to be considered, and once that is done, the reason for the sms is next.

The reason you are sending the message is as important as the first two (the content and the receiver). The content and the receiver determine the purpose of the SMS.

Once the aforementioned are addressed, the messaging process can be resumed. Look at the next phase below.

Here are the procedures involved in sending SMS from an iPhone:

1. Kindly open the SMS app and go to “New Message”. The SMS icon is close to Siri and Call Log on the iPhone Home Screen.

2. While on the New Message space, kindly type your message and edit properly. After editing the text, go to your contact list and select the mobile contact of the person you are sending the SMS to.

3. If the number of the person you are sending the SMS to is not stored in your phone, there is a space for you to input the person’s number.

4. After identifying the number of the person you are sending the SMS to, go to your send icon in the iPhone and ensure that it is on SMS, to avoid sending the text as MMS, iMessage, or media message. Once this is settled, you can send your message in peace.

If your SMS settings are okay, you will receive an instant confirmation telling you that your SMS has been sent.

Reasons for Sending SMS

1. To greet our loved ones, business partners, friends, family members, etc.

5. To give updates.

6. To pass important warnings or pieces of advice, etc.
