Ha, what a blooper. What I meant was that you're never presented with an option to send via text rather than iMessage, but have to dig through the settings app to change it.
Okay, that makes a lot more sense. Though all my experience with an active apple device, there’s a default to send a failed iMessage as an SMS so it’s essentially covered. iMessage just allows like-devices to communicate via internet connection rather than phone towers.
Ah that’s probably the case here too. I just don’t text people, or use iMessage very much.
