Text messages

Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the normal 160-character limit. If your message exceeds 160

characters, it will be sent as a series of two or more messages.
In the navigation bar, you can see the message length indicator counting backwards from 160. For example, 10 (2) means that

you can still add 10 characters for the text to be sent as two messages.
Note that using special (Unicode) characters such as ë, â, á, ì take up more space.
If there are special characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message length correctly. If

for one message.
