Tried to send a message but result was "transmission failed try later"
 
The SMS (or text) protocol has a 160 character limit. Android, iOS, flip phone, they all need to conform to that standard. Honestly, if you need more than that, send an email.

The phone / service can split them up. I'd rather just text than send an email. 160 characters really isn't a lot lol.
