Only via email address. You need an iPhone to receive iMessage via phone number, and in a country where texting is dominant, you're going to be texted via that phone number, even by your iPhone friends.
- OJFord 3y agoIf you set it up on an iPhone once, is the number then linked somehow? Since fully Apple users do get phone number iMessages pop up on macOS too right? Or is that only locally synchronised by Bluetooth or something?
- rezonant 3y agoYes, you can receive iMessages to the phone number on linked devices when the phone is off. You cannot receive SMS when the phone is off.
