At Gen Mobile, we give you the flexibility to choose whether you want a data plan. However, we want to make sure you are aware that if you choose a plan without data, some features may be unavailable depending on the type of phone you are using.
Basic phone-group texts and picture/video messaging will not be available.
Android smartphone - group texts and picture/video messaging will not be available.
If connected to Wi-Fi, group text and picture/video messages can only be sent to other Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, etc.) using iMessage. If you do not have cellular data (and are not connected to Wi-Fi) and have iMessage turned on, normal text messages will not be able to send or receive. You must disable iMessage for regular texting to work.
