    Can anyone recommend an sms app for tablets?

    Does anyone know of an app that will allow me to use my local sim card in my tablet to send sms /mms? I pay for a data and texting plan. Google messages used to offer this function but no longer apparently. I just want something that will allow my tablet phone number to send and recieve messages.

    Question Tab Active 4 Pro - can't seem to get sms working

    It's the 5G version and I'm with bell canada. It just seems strange that the text function is not working. The browser and mobile data has been working fine.
