Question

I need to know the difference between one simple SMS and one Network SMS?

Was it helpful?

Solution

These are just guesses but would need to know the context to give a proper answer.

  • Could mean the difference between an SMS that is sent cross-network, from one mobile phone provider's network to another one. So a 'simple' SMS stays within the one network.
  • If the SMS is sent from the mobile phone provider to multiple phones eg. a special offer, marketing type blurbs... that is sometimes referred to as a network SMS, though I wouldn't consider it a standard piece of terminology.
