Help. 75 year old technophobe here. Have just transferred to O2 with a new mobile Samsung A34. I'm having trouble sending and receiving text message. I have managed to send test messages to a couple of people on my contacts list successfully. However I couldn't reply to one person and couldn't receive replies from my contacts. I am very confused by the different tecxing apps that seem to be available.

 

Could someone please help explain to me which app I should make as my default for MMS / SMS text messages?

Thanks

Dave

You need to set the Samsung Messaging App as the default.

One default messaging app for text messages and WhatsApp for picture messages.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
