You can send different types of messages from your phone. Here we will
explain how to send a text message, but you can also send other message
types from the Send menu.
Tip: Text messages (SMS) are delivered immediately to a device that most
of us have with us at all times, a text message also represents a more
personal and intimate connection. Most modern smartphones can receive
emails (that may be preferable for more formal communications or
inquiries) but texting remains simpler and is the only option for those using
a more basic cell phone.
