      Just try reading the fucking article instead of guessing.

      Google notes that satellite connectivity should be compatible with carrier messaging apps. In the US, only a few carriers offer the option to activate satellite messaging. One of them is T-Mobile.

        So if you’re not using T-Mobile, or don’t want to use proprietary apps, then basically yes.
