Do you still have a habit of texting people?

Messenger apps have taken over mobile communication allegedly.

I was told by a client a few days ago that I am old fashioned for texting him that the delivery would be ahead of the scheduled time, this made me laugh but I wonder if texting is a common mode of communication still these days?

Do you text people?

I text my friends all the time.

Due to other ways of sending texts, you can get some cheap deals for a good amount of texts per month. When your low on data, they come in handy but I prefer texting myself because people tend to reply quickly.

I don't use any apps to text, I do to send messages but that is when my friends are online. So I still do text a lot but I would average around 200-300 per month.

You don't need always data to use the messaging services and sometimes you can just waste your internet on them. People sending videos, sound clips, gifs etc

I text still, mostly family and the odd friend. It's something I have been encouraged to do more.

I still text more than I message anyone over the internet, I think younger people spend more time online though but I'm that rare exception to the rule.

I text a lot, I still communicate with my former employees and family via SMS. I don't use any of the modern ways to communicate either, just plain texts.

Hardly ever now. Messenger is my real point of contact. As well as phone, I can pick them up on the IPad or laptop so regardless of what I’m doing, I’m ‘connected.’

Yes, I text a lot and I usually run out of my allocated allowance. I don't think texting is dead.

Yes, I text and call people. Whatsapp for me can't replace them either because everyone has a phone number but not all use other services.
