What’s MMS
MMS was all the rage a while back. MMS stands for Multimedia Messaging Service. With MMS, you are able to send images along with the text that’s standard in an SMS. In a way, MMS is an advanced form of SMS.
As noted, MMS was very popular a while back. But now in the age of Tik-Tok, WhatsApp and other social networking platforms, the popularity has somewhat waned.
Anyway, you are here because you still wish to use MMS. In that case, you will be glad to know that most of the packages that are offered on the network include MMS.
Summary
