I think skype and Facetime would work through it so long as they turned the 
phone's 3G off to be sure it didn't try using that.
Need to be sure they're connecting to the foreign wifi first.

Hi Everyone,

I am asking this question for a friend.  Her daughter is going to Mexico.
The hotel has wi-fi available.  Is there an accessible app that would allow
her daughter to text and/or call from Mexico to avoid international and
roaming charges?  Her daughter is not visually impaired.  If there is such
an app, do both parties have to have the app installed?  Or, is it possible
for the kids to install such an app on their phone and my friend (who is
visually impaired) to receive the text on her Iphone without an additional
app?

They are using 4s phones.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Lynda
