Hello Donald. To use Siri to reply to a text, you hold down the home button to activate Siri. Then simply say: "Reply to text from *insert name*" Then Siri will ask you what you wish the message to *insert name* to say.
When not using Siri, open the messages app, tap on the string of messages you wish to reply to, and at the bottom of the screen will be an edit field. Double tap this, and type or dictate your message as usual. Hope this answered your questions. Warm regards, Melissa Melissa Riley jamand...@izoom.net riley...@umn.edu -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Donald L. Roberts Sent: Saturday, January 11, 2014 11:47 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Replying to text messages Two questions on this subject. First, is it possible to reply to a text message using Siri? So, what is the command to issue? Second, when not using Siri to reply to a text message, what is the most convenient way to reply to the most recent text message? I ask because I can get this done, but it seems I have to fumble around quite a bit as if I have to figure it out each time. Thanks.
