If you double-tap SMS, it will turn on; it is a toggle. It won't prevent your i-messages, only, as Richard says, will enable you to text to other phones.

Maybe it'll disappear after 30 days. I'm hoping that's the case. Thank you for your help. Esther Sent From Esther's Amazing and Awesome iPhone 7+!

Enabling send as sms will allow messages to be sent when imesssage is unavailable. To enable this settings, messages.

Then, I get a message failure notification. When I look, I discover that Ciri sent an Eye Message instead of a text message. I’ve tried using the lady’s first name. Her first and last name, and just her 7 and 10 digit phone number. I’m out of ideas. Can any one make a suggestion?
