Break up long text messages or shorter ones with emojis?

I send walls of text fairly often and they turn into multiple messages on the recipients end

It's to do with how the network, in particular the SMS protocol (or whatever you call it), works.

Though you'd think that's something they would have fixed when 3G came in, let alone 4G. (There again, SMS is almost irrelevant these days, so maybe there's not much reason to fix it.)

If a text reaches a certain size it becomes a multimedia message. Some phones will break it up to prevent extra charges on the bill.

.... Or something like that.

I noticed its only android devices that do that. Ive never had the problem with an iPhone or via iMessage with someone else who has an iPhone.
