Hi Dani,
No, you can send a text message to any cell phone, just make sure
you turn on "Send as SMS if iMessage is unavailable", this way if
you ever try to send a message to somebody else who has an iPhone
and for some reason you or they don't have data coverage the message
is still sent as a regular SMS message.
If you don't want to use SMS or want to get around the limitations
you could of course use a cross-platform app like Skype, Whats App
or Facebook Messenger to text each other and all three of these also
allow for voice chat (Whats App just added the option for video chat
in an update yesterday).

Sieghard

Hi, Everyone.
My sister has an Android, and I'd like to be able to text her. Is it
a matter of knowing the carrier?
Thanks,
Dani
