is there a way to send texts in the message app without hitting the screen? i cant find the button on the keyboard that automatically sends a message.

I've tried different keys on the board but I've yet to click one that sends the message. I always have to click the screen unfortunately

As far as I can see the keyboard is only for typing the message, everything else must be done on the screen. But for my purpose, I have never taken the time to explore options for navigating.

It will send the messages automatically until you turn the SPOT off. You can also send OK messages while tracking. That is what you can push when you choose and the tracking will resume automatically after the OK message is sent

Hello, I checked my manual regarding phone alerts when text messages are received and I didn't find anything on the subject, I only found alerts for voice mail and link-to-cell capabilities. The phone may have text alert though so perhaps another buyer could assist you further. I'm sorry for any inconvenience on my behalf. Karyn

I never do text, but it can connet to internet, there are several chat apps for Android, so I think you can text.

It comes with a touch Qwerty including Swype. Texting with Swype is a breeze.

Beats me. I used a smartphone. Ask the Withings guys. They have an online chat button.

Yes, it has the "voice-to-text" feature built in. When you go to send a text it is left from the spacebar. Just like apple products.

You can text if you use BT to connect your smartphone to the inReach. No voice

If you have the correct app, then you can text Android devices, as well. Two apps that I know will allow this are textfree and pinger. Both are free.

In hangout (Google talk) enter does send as usually. In Skype - there is the bug and I wait for fixing. What app have trouble in your case?

Use the "c" key just below the compass key. It is a backup/delete/backspace/ function key. (This key always deletes what it goes over.) If you want to edit a a text message or contact, use the left & right & top & bottom compass keys to place your cursor wherever you need to be, and then edit the character that is wrong or needs changing. The compass keys can move you anywhere in the text message or contact without changing or deleting characters. Hope this helps, phones can drive us nuts!...just like p.c. s.

yes, when you go to messaging, it reverts to the qwerty keyboard....just hold the phone sideways.

Thanks for all the input on this subject it truly does help. Sorry for the confusion when I first wrote the question...that dang "GO" button on an I pad makes it easy to send things before its ready!

Yes, from menu go to messages and you can write or view a message. - prev answer is correct in the fact that you have to use number pad for spelling- no true keyboard - this is difficult for some seniors who may have shaky fingers

You can text with it only. This phone is to old a phone and does not have the capabilities of the new phones.You can send something to your e-mail but that is it.
