Use message effects with iMessage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

Make your iMessages even more expressive with bubble effects, full-screen animations, camera effects, and more.


You need iMessage to send message effects. If you aren't sure whether you're using iMessage or SMS/MMS texts, learn the difference. Depending on your carrier, messaging rates might apply when you send SMS/MMS. If you use iMessage and Wi-Fi is unavailable, cellular data rates might apply.
