@kdfrawg It's the same app. I should have said Messages (the app) rather than iMessage (the service which I refuse to use because it's the devil).
And checking T-Mobile's website I'm already on a newer carrier bundle than what they show. Figures.
Leave houe to pick up teen from school. Return home, phone shows "No Service" again. ಠ_ಠ Something tells me there is supposed to be a carrier update this isn't being pushed to my phone.
Hmm. iPhone decided it couldn't talk to the carrier network any longer. Forced reboot brought it back. Hoping it's just a one time thing and not a "hard reset the phone" thing like I've been forced to do in the past.
So the heart icon mimics that tap thing in the Apple watch I guess? Which seems to be just an animated gif when sending across SMS/MMS.
@indigo I've been able to determine that the app store icon let's you send animated gifs? Um okay…
