Change default "starting conversation with..."

By Siobhan, 6 May, 2022

Hi all. I got a message. I do not want to use my phone number to respond. How do I change the default conversation start thing? I checked the settings. Thanks. Btw, this person is not in my contact list, I want to keep it that way.

Delete conversation

When you receive the message, delete the conversation and go to settings, messages, send and receive, choose the address you want under start new conversations with, after that, send a message as a reply and change The default start conversations with back to its original value.
If you have a physical Sim and an eSIM, you can choose to switch lines during conversations in the Messages app

I sort of follow your logic

Hi. I understand delete conversation, switch, reply. what i don't understand is how to reply considering I do not have this person's number and do not want to have it. So in other words, it's not in my recents or anything. so, I guess write down number, change convo, put number in again? Ugh, to much to do on a Friday, time to drink and watch hockey. ;)
