SMS
SMS is a service for short text messages between devices connected to mobile networks. The number of characters per segment depends on the encoding used
What it means, how it is used and where it comes up, with its related concepts.
What it is and how it works
Long texts may be split into several segments, with implications for cost and presentation. Not every accented character uses the same encoding. Sending does not guarantee receipt or reading. In a communication, the content should be clear and match what the person expects; the channel does not in itself authorise every purpose.
