do I need an app?

Welcome to Android Central. You didn't specify which device you have, but most have some sort of messaging app built in to the system. If not, just access the Google Playstore - there are plenty to be found there, and many are free.

To start a text, you simply access the app, then enter a name from your contacts in the "To" field, or, if the person you want to text is not in your contact list, just enter the phone number in the "To" field. Then you should see a space under that that says something like "Enter Text". Tap that space and begin typing your message. When you are finished, tap "Send".

Please register for a free Android Central account so that you can reply to this thread or ask any additional questions related to this post. If you are still experiencing difficulties, the make and model of your device, the version of Android you are running, and the name of your particular carrier would be helpful.
