101 Greatest iOS 9 Tips and Tricks for iPhone and iPad
Despite how much we rely on our iPhones every day, sometimes we’re just not able to have it on us — perhaps when we’re at work or school or something. Fortunately, for Mac users, however, now an iMessage can be sent to your fellow iPhone and iPad wielding friends and family — but only on OS X 10.8 or later, unfortunately. Even better, with the latest update to OS X El Capitan, you can send messages to Android users now, as well!
To set this up on your iPhone and Mac, simply sign in with your Apple ID (on both devices), then go to Settings > Messages, and then enable iMessage on your iPhone. Finally, select Send & Receive. **Keep in mind: be sure that your Apple ID is set up correctly on both your iPhone and Mac, and that, when you go to start a new conversation, you select your phone number as the sender — if that’s how you want it to appear in your recipient’s inbox.**
