What is the difference between SMS and MMS
MMS? A text message of up to 160 characters without an attached file is known as an SMS, while a text that includes a file—like a picture, video, emoji, or a website link—becomes an MMS.

How do you know if someone has blocked your SMS
When you send them an SMS and you get the “Delivered” notification underneath it, you weren’t blocked.
If you get a notification like “Message Not Delivered” or you get no notification at all, that’s a sign of a potential block.
What happens if I turn off SMS on iPhone
When you disable SMS, the iMessage system automatically takes over, and sends and receives messages using your cellular or Wi-fi data connection.
To ensure you don’t receive any text messages through SMS, you can also disable your cellular data connection to force your iPhone to use an available Wi-Fi network.

Does MMS require data
Texts, MMS, etc are a legacy from the pre-smartphone days, and are independent of Wi-Fi.
Although on a smartphone, it uses the cellular data network, you are not charged for that use if you have a messaging package.
Why is MMS so expensive
Because you send media with MMS, the messages are larger compared to SMS. Messages can be a maximum of 500 KB or 1,600 characters.
MMS is also sent through cell phone networks, but because of their size, they use more data than SMS messages.
As a result, it’s more expensive to send MMS messages.
What uses the most data on cell phone
Apps. Apps are likely the biggest data users on your phone. Anything that needs to connect to the Web to update, refresh, or download will use cell data.
This means all your social media and streaming apps, from Facebook to Twitter, Spotify to Netflix, will quietly eat up your data.
