How did I get a text from myself iPhone?
There are a few different ways you can send yourself text messages from your iPhone. The simplest way is to use the Messages app on your device. You can create a new message, enter in your own phone number as the recipient and then compose and send the message like you would any other. Another option is to take advantage of the Airdrop feature which allows you to quickly share files between two iOS devices (including texts). To do this, make sure both devices are running iOS 7 or later and that Bluetooth and WiFi are enabled on both devices. On one device, open up Control Center by swiping upward from the bottom of your screen and select Airdrop; choose “Everyone” so that all nearby iPhones will be able to receive it. On the other device, select “Allow me to be discovered by” > Contacts Only or Everyone depending on whom you want receiving it. Once these steps have been completed on both devices, tap “Share via AirDrop” in order to share media including text messages with yourself.
Why is my iMessage green when I text myself?
It is normal for iMessage messages to appear green when texting yourself. This is because iMessage uses a different system to detect when you are sending a message to another Apple user or an Android device. When you send messages between two Apple devices, the messages will be sent over Apple’s secure messaging service and appear blue. However, if one of the devices is not compatible with iMessage (such as an Android device) then your message will be sent over the standard SMS system and appear in green.
How do you text yourself on iOS 16?
You can send yourself text messages on iOS 16 by using the Messages app. To do this, open the Messages app and tap on the Compose icon in the upper right corner of your screen.

How can I text my own number?
You can text your own number by using a service called SMS forwarding.

To use this feature, you’ll need two phones: an original phone with the number you want to send texts from and a second phone with the new number you want those texts sent to.
To set up SMS forwarding on Android phones:
1. Open Settings > Advanced settings > Privacy & security > Other privacy settings
2. Select Text Messages (SMS) Forwarding
3. Enter your desired destination mobile/cell phone number
4. Make sure “Enable” is checked under “Forward my incoming messages” and tap OK
On iPhones:
1. Open Settings > Phone
2. Tap Text Message Forwarding
3. Toggle on the devices that should receive forwarded messages
Once enabled, all outgoing and incoming text messages sent or received from the original number will be redirected automatically to the new one without needing any additional steps or configuration changes on either device!
