Can we identify the caller

Hi,

Is there any possibility to know whether caller is using iPhone or android?


or can we know that how many people from my contact list are using iPhone?


Thanks

iPhone 11, iOS 14

The latter is not possible.


However, before sending an individual message you will know it.


Use message app > select a contact on To: < > then you will see greyed out "iMessage" or "Text Message" in the Text box below


iMessage indicates the contact is using an iPhone and have enabled iMessage

Text indicates either the contact has not activated iMessage or has a non-iOS device.
