With the development of communication technology, dual-SIM phones have become a common configuration in our lives. Apple mobile phones are no exception, in order to meet the diverse communication needs of users, Apple has added dual SIM functions in subsequent versions. However, many users may encounter confusion when using dual SIM to send SMS: how to switch the primary and secondary cards? This article will introduce in detail how to switch the primary and secondary SIM cards for SMS to help you easily deal with this problem.
1. Enter the dialing interface.
First of all, we want to find the green dial icon on the desktop of the iPhone. This icon is the entrance to the call function of the Apple mobile phone, and it is also the first step for us to switch the main and secondary cards. Make sure your phone is unlocked, and then tap the dial icon to enter the dialing screen.
2. Enter the address book.
Below the dialing screen, you'll see a row of options. Please find and tap on the "Contacts" option. Contacts is where iPhone stores contact information, through which we can quickly find the contacts we want to call** or send text messages.
3. Select a contact.
Once you're in the address book, you'll see an alphabetical list of your contacts. Swipe to find the contact you want to call** or send a text message to. Click on the contact's name to enter the contact details page.
Fourth, switch the primary and secondary cards.
On the contact details page, you'll see a "Primary" or "Secondary" identifier below the contact's name. This indicator indicates whether the primary card or the secondary card is currently selected. To switch between primary and secondary cards, tap the logo.
At this point, you'll see a pop-up box on your phone's screen that lists your primary and secondary card options. Please select the card number you want to use according to your needs. If you want to use the primary card to send SMS, choose the primary card; If you want to use an additional card to send text messages, choose an additional card.
5. Send text messages.
After switching between the primary and secondary cards, you can go back to the SMS editing interface and enter the content you want to send. Once confirmed, click the send button to send the SMS. At this point, the SMS will be sent to the card number you just selected.
6. Precautions.
Although the method of switching the main and secondary cards of the Apple mobile phone to send text messages is relatively simple, the following points need to be paid attention to during use:
Make sure that you have two SIM cards inserted into your phone and that both are activated. If only one SIM card or one of the SIM cards is not activated, you will not be able to see the option to switch between primary and secondary cards in the SMS interface.
When switching between primary and secondary cards, make sure your phone is connected to the Internet. Because switching the primary and secondary cards requires obtaining the network signal and related information from the carrier, if the mobile phone is in a state without network, the switch may not be successful.
If you're having trouble using it, you can try restarting your phone or contact your carrier for help. Sometimes, there may be a problem with the mobile phone system or carrier network, resulting in the failure to switch the primary and secondary SIM cards or the normal use.
