HikingPete Posted October 21, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 21, 2022 From recollection its WiFi, not network coverage. Some carriers allow the sending of texts via WiFi but not all, and it varies on the phone you are using and what it supports. If I were you and you're not certain what your phone/carrier allows, work on the assumption that it will be WiFi only, and therefore need to use email, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT1962 Posted October 21, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 21, 2022 IMessages should work, if you have an iPhone and are sending to other iPhones. Regular texting will not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
