Federal Inmate Text Messaging

As technology is becoming a regular aspect of our lives, prisons and jails are beginning to explore new ways to communicate with family and friends. One such innovation is federal inmate text messaging. Inmates can send messages to loved ones through a special device that resembles an ordinary cellphone. The device costs 10 cents for each message and the maximum character limit is 160. The device is simple for loved ones who want to contact their detained family members.

The devices, also referred to as chirping devices (or chirping devices) are not able to allow prisoners to download apps, take photos or make calls via phone contactmeasap.com or internet or browse the internet. Also, they can't use stickers or emoticons. The device doesn't need any phone minutes or pre-approvals.

People who send messages may purchase credits on the ConnectNetwork website. Prices for messages vary depending on the state and facility. To check the current rates, sign in to ConnectNetwork and then go to the page for messaging for the person in custody you wish to talk to.

Prisoners can respond to messages by writing an answer or responding electronically. Corbot can also be used to purchase books. Corbot's Amazon feature lets inmates search by title or author and then find an all-text version.

It is crucial to keep in mind that federal prisoners are subject to strict security measures. Users of the service are advised to stay aware of their surroundings at all times and to not disclose any personal information, like an address or phone number to a prisoner. They should also avoid prisoners who are not authorized to take part in this program.
