Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I recently migrated from an iPhone to an Android based phone. I would like to continue using my iPhone for iMessaging, but since it no longer has mobile service, iMessage has been deactivated. Is it possible to attach iMessage to my Apple ID / email address instead of my phone number, similar to how a iPad behaves?
iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2
Yes, you will have to be connected to WiFi to send or receive messages.
How do I active imessage though? I'm on wireless. I assume I need to activate with my email instead of phone number now, but I don't see the option.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive
Select your choices.
I have my email selected in that field, the trouble is, I can't get iMessage to activate anymore.
