    dj,
    That is good to know. Have you  ever turned off wi-fi and used your cellular data instead? I'd like to know if your carrier charges you for the iMessage? I will be travelling with a +44 number on my sim card (Teletial based in the Channel Islands I believe) and some places like South Korea & Japan charge about  $30USD/MB. ( or 19 GBP/MB). The devil is in the detail. 
    My carrier, 3, does not charge extra for cellular data.   I pay £34 per month for a cellular plan with unlimited data.  So, no, I do not get charged for sending iMessages whether I am on cellular data or wifi.  If I were to try to send an iMessage to an international number that did not belong to an Apple device, it would send as SMS and I am sure that standard international rates would apply.  Apple iMessage is a different protocol for users with an AppleID.  There is no way for the carrier to distinguish it from any other data traffic.

  • HT3529 Can I use imessage internationally? I live overseas but my daughter lives in Canada. Can I imessage her for free?

    We both own iphone 4S's. I just don't want to subscribe to an international texting plan for her, if I know that imessage will deliver them for free. Can anyone enlighten me?

    Yes, iMessage is free between iOS devices and Macs worldwide.
    Be aware, that if for some reason iMessage is unavailable, it will send it as an SMS if you have that option turned on in Settings > Messages

  • HT1689 can i use imessage if all 4 iphones on my itunes account all use the same email address

    can i use imessage if all 4 of my family's iphones use the same i tunes account?

    Hello, gio4360. 
    Thank you for the question.  It is common for people share an Apple ID for the iTunes and App Store.  However, it is recommended that you use a separate Apple ID specifically for iMessage, Facetime and iCloud.  The reason for this is because anyone that shares the same Apple ID for iMessage will receive all iMessages.

  • Can I use iMessage on my ipad but also send texts using my Android?

    I currently have an Android phone, so all of my contacts send and receive SMS messages to me. I am planning to purchase an iPad for a long trip, so that I can use iMessage to talk with friends and family that have iPhones, rather than have to use WhatsApp or Viber.
    I am concerned that once I send an iMessage to someone it will save my number as an iPhone and if I switch back to SMS during the trip at all, I won't receive any of their messages (I am aware there is an easy fix for this but I'd rather not have to fix it every time I switch between the two).
    I was wondering if this would be something to worry about before my purchase.
    If anyone has both an iPad and an Android, and uses both to communicate simultaneously any insight would be really helpful.
    Thanks!

    The iPad cannot use your Android phone number at all so it will not in any way be associated with the device or your Apple ID. You will be using your Apple ID email address as your connect address to use Messages. If you want to look at it this way, your iPad/iMessages will be associated with your Apple account/Apple ID, not with the Android phone number.
    Where some users get into problems is if they go from an iPhone number to an Android phone number. That is not what you are doing.

  • How can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

    how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

    No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
    Look at this very informative video for the instructions.

  • Can you use ichat to talk to friends on facebook?

    i guess my subject says it all, but anyway: can i use ichat to talk to friends who are online on facebook? i would like to be able to not have to be on facebook to talk to friends. thanks!
    also--> would this involve having to download certain software? or is it possible to do it without extra stuff?

    The option has been given to developers by facebook to make it work through jabber. However, as of yet nothing has materialised. Keep your eyes open for it... this may be the year!

  • TS2755 When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy. I'll never buy another if I can text using SMS or MMS

    When will Apple ever make it convenient for the customer, I just bought an iPad Air and I'm very upset that I can only use iMessage, iPads are the biggest mistake to buy if you like texting family and friends. I'll never buy another one if I can't text using SMS or MMS.  Is there any hope for a patch or new operating system to fix this issue, or an app to use with iPad Air
