Text Message time stamp

[Bailey]

Hi,

I just got the new iPhone 4 the other day and I'm still getting used to it. I sent a text to a friend and then turned off my phone and went to bed. When I got up in the morning and turned on my phone I saw that she texted me back. The thing is it's showing me that it was sent at the time I turned my phone on but I know it was sent the night before. Is there anyway of finding out when the message was actually sent?

Hey Bailey,

In short to answer your question it is not possible to find out when the message was actually sent to your phone. Since your phone was turned off when you turned it back on that was when the message had the opportunity to come through thus that is when the phone thought it got the message. Hope that makes sense
