ii. You cannot hyperlink a SMS message. Hyperlinks are a feature of web pages and email messages, but they are not supported by SMS messages. When you try to send a hyperlink in an SMS message, it will be sent as plain text. The recipient will not be able to click on the link to open the website.
There are a few workarounds for this limitation. One is to use a third-party app that allows you to send hyperlinks in SMS messages. Another is to use a website that shortens URLs. When you shorten a URL, it will be converted into a shorter, more manageable format. You can then send the shortened URL in an SMS message. The recipient will be able to click on the shortened URL to open the website.
