Send a Message
In the Messages app, you use the iMessage system to conduct instant messaging conversa-
tions, which are the exchange of text messages between two or more people who are online
and available to chat. With iMessage, you can exchange instant messages with other iMes-
sage users who are using a Mac, an iPhone, an iPad, or an iPod touch, as long as they have
the Messages app installed.
If you are looking to conduct an instant messaging conversation with someone on a non-
iMessage system, such as Google or AOL, see the section “
Start a Text Chat
.”
