"Send as Text Message"

[Raska]

Has anyone ever seen the below popup bubble? I have only seen it twice, and I cannot reproduce it. It seems to just happen at random, but only when I try to copy a text bubble in Message. When I tapped on 'Send as Text Message', nothing happened.

This is an iMessage feature. When a message you are sending has defaulted to iMessage and you press and hold you will get this option to force the message to send as a text.

Press and hold on the bubble to bring up that message.

Something is strange for me then, because when I do that normally, all that comes up is 'Copy'.

Because the message already has been delivered as iMessage.
