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.

You can, however, use it to text to a phone... with the phone number and text address of the recipient's carrier's text address.

I'm trying to determine if my iPhone will be compatible with this unit before I buy it. Is there a list of supported phones anywhere? Also, is text messaging supported? I'd like a Bluetooth enabled GPS to read out text messages when they are received by a paired phone. Will this unit do that?

No but their is an app called pinger that I heard of that allows you to text people and make voice calls but the call quality is not so good. My daughter calls me with pinger on the Samsung galaxy tab 4 8 inch model and she sounds like a robot lol

This is only for Apple. However, I think you can get similar units for other devices.

Call them they are helpful. I think it does Android devices. it did not work with my two Apple devices at all.

Yes you can, I have one myself. I have the 60 dollar unlimited talk & text with 2gb data. But using iMessage without wifi will burn your data if used constantly, but it's best to have wifi for this plan.

I don't know about Android. We've only used ours with a variety of Apple Devices.

Even though I do not use this phone for texting, there is a 'write' feature that allows you to send messages. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, but only one at a time, think there is a apps that can send to multiple devices but only on stuff in you iOS device, not from steam services.

If you use the aux cord, it wont display any text information, just will show "aux"; to display text, needs the iphone cord or the micro usb (android) so thats no possible for android users

Yes! iMessage is included in the iOS 5 software update. You may also install other messaging apps such as Facebook Messenger or Textfree.
