Texting shows on 2 Iphones

My husband & I both have 2 x I phones through our company and both are  on the same plan with shared minutes and texting and data. We each have our own number. every time I text someone it shows up on his phone when people reply to me showing him the whole conversations. I frequently update my phone on iTunes and told because we are on the same account that is why this happens.
But I don't receive or see any of his texts so not sure why mine are going to his phone.

On each phone use theSettings app to send and receive messages from only the phone number of the phone in question.
Settings > messages > Send and receive From
On each phone select that phones number and deselect any other numbers that show.

  • On the iPhone, why do some texts show up in blue and some in green?

    Dumb question.. Why do some texts show up in blue and some in green on the iPhone?

    Not dumb at all. The blue ones are iMessages, while the green ones are regular text messages.

  • How can I receive a text message from an iPhone to my iPad instead of my android phone?

    my friend has an iphone6 plus, I have an iPad Air.  I cannot receive messages from his iPhone to my iPad but he can send to my android phone. I do receive iMessages from other iphone 5 and 6plus users to my iPad.

    If you are sending an iMessage rather than an SMS (normal text message) it uses your Data Plan not your Text Message allowance.

    So, all of my iphone-using friends need to simply have a data plan, and set up imessages so the texts show up as blue, and I won't be charged additionally?
    Correct.
    The Blue iMessages use your Internet connection.
    If you are away from a Wifi network it will use your Cellular Data Plan for the internet connection.
    The Green Ones use your Text Messaging service.
    Again If they have set up iMessages on their iPhones it will be sent through the internet.
    All other Phones and iPhones that don't have iMessage set up, will use your Text Message Allowance known as SMS.

  • Is there a way to send text messages on an iPhone instead of iMessages?

    My mom and I both have iPhones. My mom has a data plan while I don't, meaning my iPhone is Wi-Fi only while hers isn't. Whenever my mom tries to send me a text it will only send it as an iMessage text, and not an SMS text. Since my iPhone is Wi-Fi only I can only receive her messages if my phone is connected to Wi-Fi. This problem could easily be fixed if my mom just turns off iMessage in the settings, but she would have to constantly turn her iMessage on and off, just so she can send me a text.This has caused many problems because my mom would send me an important message, only to not have it read by me because I can't get her iMessage text without Wi-Fi. Is there a way for her to send me only SMS texts to my iPhone, even if iMessage is still turned on in her settings?

    I don't think this works. Even if I turn off iMessage on my iPhone, anyone who has iMessage turned on on their phone will automatically send an iMessage text. For example the picture shows what will show up on a device that has iMessage turned on, when they're about to send a message. As you can see there's an "iMessage" sign in the text box. Wether or not iMessage is turned off on my phone, it doesn't matter to the other device which doesn't know that. It's not like turning off iMessage on my phone will automatically send a message to the other phone saying iMessage is turned off, so they can now start sending SMS texts. So basically, turning off iMessage on my phone does absolutely nothing. Sorry if this was a little confusing.

  • Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

    You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

  • Why does text show up as imessage or text whats the difference?

    WHY DOES MY TEXT SHOW UP AS IMESSAGE WHICH IS BLUE OR TEXT IS GREEN OTHER TIMES

    iMessage is free while the regular green text cost money.  You can text anyone, you can iMessage other iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad users.
    If you are having iMessages being sent as texts, I would turn off the setting in Messages Setting, "Send as SMS".
