Compose New Message

Overview

The Reach app is designed for quickly and easily sending messages to multiple recipients. It allows you to personalize your messages, ensuring that your communication stands out and doesn't get lost in the clutter of other messages people receive.

1. Navigate to Messages

Start by locating the Messages icon on the toolbar at the bottom of your screen. Tap on it to open the Messages.

2. Look for a button to create a new message

You can find the button to create a new message in the upper right corner. Tap on it to begin composing your message.

3. Compose Your Message

Upon clicking the new message button, you will be automatically directed to a new page dedicated to message editing. Here, you can craft your message with the following elements:

Text of Message: This is the body of your message where you convey your primary message or information. You can type directly into the text box provided. Text copied from another message or other sources can also be pasted.

Template Fields. You can use templates to make your message more personal, especially when sending it to a group. For example, by inserting the First Name template, you can automatically personalize each message with the recipient's first name. This ensures that each contact receives a customized message, yet without being aware of other recipients.

To add a template, click on the Template Fields button and select the desired option from the dropdown menu.

For more details on using templates effectively, refer to Personalize Messages with Templates.

Subject (for Email and MMS only). If you're composing an email or MMS, there is a field with the hint "Type Subject Here (optional)". In our example, the subject is "Meeting Info".

To use the "Subject" field in MMS: 1. Navigate to your iPhone's Settings. 2. Scroll down and select Messages. 3. Toggle the Show Subject Field setting to the ON position. Please, note that the Subject Field cannot be used in Fully Automatic Sending mode for MMS due to Apple's limitation.

Attachments: You have the option to attach images or files to your message. Look for an attachment button in the upper right corner. To add an image, you can select it from your photo library. For attaching a file, navigate to and choose the desired file from the Files on your device.

Added images and files will be displayed as thumbnails above the main text of the message. Each attachment can be removed by clicking on the red cross on the thumbnail.

Messages with attachments will be sent as either MMS or iMessage.

4. Send the Message

Once you have composed your message and added any necessary attachments, look for the send button. Tap on it to send your message to the recipient(s).

In Send Message you will find detailed documentation on how to send the message you have created.
