To send a message to a regular phone using iMessage, simply open the Messages app on your Apple device and start a new message. Enter the recipient’s phone number or email address. If the recipient does not have iMessage, your message will be sent as an SMS automatically. Ensure your device has an active internet connection for iMessage to work properly.
An iMessage is essentially a text message on your phone, but on an Apple device. Apple is notorious for using the lower-case letter 'i' as a way of distinguishing their products from non-Apple products. Be aware that Apple's texting app is also called iMessage, as well as the individual texts.
When you receive pictures on your iPhone, they may appear as both regular SMS/MMS messages and iMessages due to the settings of the sender's device and network. If the sender is using an Apple device and has iMessage enabled, the image will be sent as an iMessage, which uses data instead of SMS. However, if there’s an issue with the internet connection or the sender is not using iMessage, the image may be sent as a regular SMS/MMS. This dual approach ensures that the message is delivered regardless of network conditions.
