  • SMS over Wi - Fi

    I understand that this could be a problem of carrier, but I wanted to tender hand to see if anyone has the same problem.

    When I switch to the iPhone 7 more, I stopped to receive SMS over Wi - Fi.  I can send and receive the iMessage and I can send SMS on Wi - Fi, but I can't receive.  I am currently on AT & T.

    If I remove the SIM card from my phone and put it in 6 seconds of my wife, she also has the problem.  But with the SIM of my wife in her phone, it works very well.  Any ideas?  Can anyone else with AT & T test this?  (Turn on airplane mode and send an SMS over Wi - Fi and AT & T Wi - Fi.)

    If the question "follows" the SIM card, it seems to be a problem with AT & T.

  • Siri are not sent by SMS in iMessage (OS Sierra)

    This seems to be a strange problem that I can not find a solution. My Macbook is connected to my iPhone SE. They all run the two most recent software updates.

    When I manually type my messages (in iMessage) on my Macbook to a non - iOS user, everything works perfectly (message sent is green). The problem is Siri. When I use Siri orders to send text messages to a user non - iOS (on my Macbook), she will not send SMS, only iMessage (blue). This causes the red exclamation point saying that the message send failed. If I click on "try again" on this error, the message (green now) sends very well.
    On my iPhone, text messages transfer is set up and send as SMS is turned on.

    So, how can I me Siri to use SMS and send text messages to my contacts non - iOS without having to press 'try again' on each message? Note that this command works fine on my iPhone.

    When you type a message what receiver do you use?

    When you use Siri one used?

    Hi, jandianajones!

    Thank you for reaching out by Apple Support communities. From your post, I see that you want to stop your Messages to be accessible on the lock screen. I completely understand wanting to keep your conversations private and to prevent their access without your access code. I'd be happy to help you to know what options you have!

    For added convenience, app Notifications have a setting that allows them to be seen and interacted with on your lock screen. It is a setting entirely optional and can be disabled for individual applications under settings > Notifications. Tap the application that you want to adjust (in your case, Messages) and toggle the "Show on lock screen" switch in the off position. You can still receive alert sounds when a message arrives through to be notified, you have received one, but it will not appear on your lock screen. To view, unlock your iPhone and go directly to the Messages app.

    More information on Notifications, including how they work and what options you have with them, can be found here: Use of Notifications on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    See you soon!

  • Apple Watch is unsent SMS (texting) iMessages only

    I try to send through Siri texting (sms). I managed to write the message, I see it with a blue buble, but underneath, I have a "DO NOT SEND" only and not a button 'SEND '.

    I realized that to send the message, I just need to ask my wrist and it should go, but it does not work.

    If I activate iMessage on the iPhone, it works (not always, but very well).

    So is it possible to send SMS messages (no iMessages) with a Apple Watch?

    Thanks for your response

    Yes, it should work without problem. Try disconnecting your watch and re Peel. Also you restart phone and watch

  • iOS 10 no longer allows you to choose to send SMS

    Hi, I have upgraded to iOS 10 and I don't have the option key on an iMessage that invites the option to send SMS. I regularly use this function when I travel or am in areas without large internet service. I know I can disable iMessage but which is rather annoying. Is there a setting that I'm not aware? I plan on downgrading to iOS 9 if not.

    Have you checked the phone settings? Settings > Messages > Send as SMS > on.

  • IMessage IOS 10 Force to send SMS

    The IOS 10, you can is more keep your iMessage on hold and get a screen that appears and says "Send as a text Message" now a bubble appears with an exclamation mark, thumbs up/down, etc.

    When I'm in and out of service that may take several minutes for an iMessage figure out it cannot be sent. It's extremely annoying when I'm in poor service areas, which, once a trip can be often. I know that you can disable iMessage in settings, but I don't want to go back and forth constantly, I just want to be able to quickly get my message as a text message so that a single message... so annoying that this option has been removed.

    When I'm on the bad service, the blue bar at the top will remain at 80% for 5-10 minutes or more. Please Apple stop remove features...

    I urgently need this feature too. When you need to send an urgent message, in case of accident, I can't wait 10 minutes see iMessage has not sent the message. This often occurs if the receiver is in another country at the moment and has disabled the data roaming. If I change iMessage in preferences, then I can send a SMS but on all my iOS devices and all my Macs come alerts that say, that a new device has joined iMessage. I completely disabled Messages on the Mac, but this Message is delivered with a regular alert box. How can I pass this warnings completely.

  • Make messages by default SMS app when not on wifi

    Hi all. I just had a question about iMessage. I have a 6 s iPhone running iOS 10.0.1. I have no data. I love the new iMessage, and I would like to try it out, so yesterday I turned on iMessage. However, I was in a place with no WiFi, and one of my friends sent me an important through iMessage message. He said it was delivered, but I do not have it. I know that there is a way to send SMS iMessage by double tapping by clicking send as SMS, but it would be too difficult to get all of my contacts with the iPhones do it for me. Is there a way to make sure that when I send messages on WiFi to other users of the iPhone, the default values of the iMessage message, and when I'm not on WiFi, they by default for SMS? Or something like that?

    Thank you very much.

    In theory, if you are not connected to data, Messages must use the WiFi. However, it is not always instantaneous. And, if you have other devices connected to the same Apple ID as an iPad or a Mac, you'll find that this does not always work as you want. I highly recommend that if you have not given cell phones on your iPhone, you disconnect from the iMessage and only use SMS.

  • No text message (SMS) to Apple Watch on OS 3

    Since the upgrade to iOS 10 on my 6 + and 3 watch OS, I'm more able to send my watch normal text messages, unless I have disable iMessage on my phone. iMessages are no problem, it is only when I try to send a product not apple.

    I tried enabling / disabling iMessage and 'Send as SMS' works, with reboot both phone and shows all the intermediate combinations. Nothing works. Sending SMS from my phone works fine. I have not matched and reset my watch and then re-paired.

    Now, I suspect that this is a bug in the watchOS 3. Also has anyone seen this problem? Someone at - it other ideas on how to fix it?

    Otherwise, I love all the new features of the new OS
