Not long ago, cell phones were used primarily for making telephone calls. Now, many cell phone users want messaging functionality as well. In fact, some people message considerably more than they talk on the phone. This is where the iPhone SMS application comes in handy.
Messages are displayed within the SMS application as an ongoing chat. This makes it easy to pick up a conversation at the place where you left off. You can easily scroll through the messages with one flick of your finger. If messaging is no longer cutting it, a call button allows you to instantly telephone the person that you are messaging.
With many cell phones, texting can be difficult when trying to use a standard phone keypad. Mistakes are frequently the result. The iPhone SMS application comes with an on-screen QWERTY keyboard that along with making typing easier, also includes the ability to search for typos as you are texting and fix them.
Yet another great feature is the ability to send the same message to as many contacts you would like at the same time. This can be very useful for planning meetings or parties.
The iPhone SMS application gives users the ability to send and view text messages with ease.
