Master Apple's video, audio, and text messaging tools!

Version 1.0, published June 21, 2022

Face, Messages, and Phone form the core of Apple's video, texting, and call tools for owners of iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Apple Watches. As Face and Messages have expanded features, they've become more complicated to master and use exactly the way you want. How they interact with the phone network and the Phone app can be a blurry line, too. In this book, Glenn Fleishman lays out your options to best understand, use, and customize Face and Messages for your needs and conversations. Start by mastering (or reviewing) the basics of each app, then move into group calls and texts, using rich media, maintaining your privacy, and adding whimsy to conversations. Covers iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and watchOS.
