… ideas the second one was of great use in our pickle. Which begs the question …
Tell us more about your pickle? And forget any jokes regarding gherkins, please!!!
Well, you twisted my gherkin … sorrrrryarm!
Okay, was trying to describe a car tyre to a guy who knew a lot about tyres, but wasn’t at the car during the initial Phone app (on iPhone) conversation I was having with the guy.
Got an SMS from my partner of a photo of the tyre in question from another iPhone Messages app via it’s Camera app. Meanwhile the guy can’t identify the tyre me telling him of the car make and model number and year, so he wants to see photos of the tyre in an SMS, and so he gives me his SMS number (and I don’t have a pen … Murphy’s Law).
Anyway, I was not aware of “idea 1” above, alas, because I could have shaped to do it then and there on the iPhone via the Messages app still talking to the guy. But I panicked, and in the panic, forget three of the numbers (but we digress). Anyway, eventually we got that aspect sorted and was in an SMS message wanting to include that image from the other SMS and it was that “idea 2” that got us out of our pickle because back at the new SMS the + icon has an option to attach an image via the Photos app (and to take the image via the Camera app, of course, too).
Any of this familiar?! We know we’re lacking in the nuances of SMS communication, but was wondering if these revelations are helpful to any iPhone SMS users out there?!
