10 messaging tips on iPhone you should not ignore

The article will provide some IMessage messaging tips on the iPhone, please see and apply on your iPhone.

1. Mute group message alerts

The ability to mute group messages is a popular feature. When you're in a chat group, you can mute alerts when new messages arrive but don't want to reply right away. From the message list, swipe left, then press the Hide Alerts button. You will see a floating crescent icon on the left, indicating that the notification scene will be reported again. (You can swipe and press Show Alerts if you want to receive notifications again).

2. Name the group

If there are multiple group conversations, it will be difficult to follow the group, so you should name the message group by opening the conversation, touching the "i" icon on the top right and then touching Go to Enter a Group Name at the top. Now, the name you give will appear in the message list instead of an unnamed list.

3. Do not repeat the message message

By default, the incoming iPhone message will repeat, so the phone will vibrate when the message arrives and then report again after 2 minutes. But many users feel uncomfortable when receiving message notifications twice. To turn off this notification go to Settings> Notifications> Messages> Repeat Alerts and select Never .

4. Set a special tone for that special person

Not all incoming messages have the same level of importance. So, put a special tone for someone you feel special by opening the Contacts app, clicking Edit and scrolling down to Text Tone and selecting a different message tone than Default . You can also change the default vibration sound here.

5. Block someone

If someone is bothering you, it's easy to block that number. From a text chat, tap "i" at the top right, tap the name or number at the top and then tap Block this Caller. Finally, click Block Contact to confirm. (You can go back and click this Unblock this Caller if you change your mind and want to continue texting.)

6. Reply from the notice

You do not need to open the Messages application to reply to messages that can respond directly from a written notice. Just press and hold on the notification and you can send a reply.
