How to activate the character counter on the iPhone

As you know, all messages have a maximum length of 160 characters on all mobile devices. However, in the iPhone this fact is a small problem because, if you have ever tried to send a message from the native application of the Apple device, you may have noticed that it does not have any type of character counter that tells us when we are arriving to our limit. If you want to activate the word counter and not take scares on the bill, in .com we teach you to do it step by step.

You will need to:
  • An iphone.
Steps to follow:

one

Go to 'Settings' to then press 'Messages' and activate the option 'Character count'.

two

If you are using the iOS 5 operating system, remember that the native iPhone application 'SMS' now includes the iMessage option. Although the character counter works correctly in both systems, you must distinguish when it is free to send the message and when not.

Tips
  • The text of the 'Send' button will be changed by the number of characters you have written.
