93 Communication
To send a group message
1. Open the Messaging app (set it as your default messaging app, if
necessary), then tap the New message icon (in the upper-right corner
of the screen).
2. Add the recipients, as necessary (from your Contacts or manual entry).
3. Select how the message will be sent, by Group Conversation or
Individual Messages.
Tap the Group Conversation button (below the recipients) to allow all
of the recipients to be viewed by each other so they can respond to
you and the group. The message is sent as a multimedia message
(MMS).
Tap the Individual Messages button (below the recipients) so that
none of the recipients can see the other recipients (similar to BCC).
Each individual can only respond to your message.
NOTE Tap the Help icon (on the right side of the screen) to view information regarding using
these buttons.
4. Complete the message as necessary, then tap the green Send to all
button (on the right side of the screen).
Using Direct message
A Direct message widget is like a speed dial button to send a message. If
you placed a Direct message widget on your Home screen, simply tap the
contact’s Direct message widget to automatically start a message to that
contact.
Receiving and viewing messages
If you’re working in a message window, messages that you receive from
that contact are displayed. Otherwise, you receive a new message
notification and a new message icon
appears in the Status Bar. When
you tap the new message notification, the Message screen opens where
you can reply to the message. If the New message pop-up setting is
activated, you’ll receive a pop-up notification on the current screen which
you can use to directly reply.
