How to send SMS messages with more than 160 characters in BonrixSMSServer4SMPP?

Question

I am using BonrixSMSServer4SMPP to send text messages. I am facing some issues when trying to send messages with more than 160 characters. The message goes out as two separate ones. Is there a workaround to send a single message with more than 160 characters?

Answer 1

This option depends on the destination, if you will, of your text message. A standard SMS message is 160 characters long at the max. Any number above 160 characters is either divided at the start or received as a second message. It depends on the phone's model, though, too. For example, a smartphone will receive such a message as one text.
