When an SMS is sent via Accurx, although it appears as 1 message to the user and the patient, it is actually split into chunks of around 160 characters – each called fragments.
On average, one Accurx text is made up of 2.3 fragments.
This is what the counter at the bottom of your compose a message screen is displaying. 👇
Exactly how fragments work in Accurx will vary somewhat based on the organisation you’re part of.
