Help No Character Count in Stock SMS app?

[Deleted User]

I may just be missing something here, but is there no character counter on the stock SMS app? I don't see one anywhere, and I looked in the settings. Seems like something that should be included... just so I know I'm not sending long multi-text messages to people.

It displays on the right side of the text box when you go over and I think when you get close to 160 characters.

No visible counter until the last 10 characters then it counts down on the right hand side.

Alright, thanks. I typed a really long message and saw this... actually kinda like it.
