Messages

iMessage service

With the Messages app and the built-in iMessage feature, you can send text messages over

Wi-Fi to others using iOS 5 or later, or OS X Mountain Lion or later. Messages can include photos,

videos, and other info. You can see when people are typing, and let them know when you’ve read

their messages. If you’re signed in to iMessage using the same Apple ID on other iOS devices or

a Mac (OS X Mavericks or later), you can start a conversation on one device and continue it on

another. For security, messages you send with iMessage are encrypted before they’re sent.

With Continuity (iOS 8 or later), you can also send and receive SMS and MMS messages on your

iPad, relayed through your iPhone. Both your iPad and iPhone must be signed in to iMessage

using the same Apple ID. Charges may apply to the text messaging service for your iPhone. See

About Continuity features on page 24.

WARNING: For important information about avoiding distractions that could lead to dangerous

situations, see Important safety information on page 15 4.

Note: Cellular data charges or additional fees may apply for you, and for the iPhone and iPad

users you exchange messages with over their cellular data network.
