The info regarding this was in the WiFi/internet info sheet you can pick up by the wifi desk on deck 3 and it said only iMessage and so only iPhone to iPhone. I was able to message my kids at home and my husband on the ship. We didn’t really use the navigator app to communicate. I was on the Fantasy as well.
I received the sheet at embarkation. It was an insert in the Navigator.
I was on this sailing. I could send iMessages (just text no pics), however my mom could not do anything with her galaxy. I was able to contact only family and friends with iPhones.
Yes, I should have mentioned no photos came through.
Is the iMessage working with non-iPhone but other Apple devices (ie. iPad, iPod)?
The verbiage is "If you are using an Apple device, you may send (and receive) complimentary text messages via iMessage to other Apple users on the ship and back home. An internet package is not required." So it certainly sounds like it will work on an iPad, etc..
I once use iMessage for free on Southwest at 30,000 Ft. Then they fixed the leak in the paywall. I wonder if Disney will do the same.

This is intentional rather than a leak.
