**Connect iMessage to send tasks to your agent and receive replies as text messages on any Apple device.**

1. In the Mac app, open the account menu (your name, bottom left) › Message your agents.
2. Choose iMessage and follow the setup steps.
3. Once connected, you can text your agent's number to start a new chat or continue an existing one.

Where: Mac app › Settings › Agents and apps › Connectors › iMessage.

Good to know: iMessage requires macOS permissions and uses the Messages app on your Mac as the relay. Each message you send starts or continues a chat in your workspace. Replies arrive as standard iMessage texts. Related: [Message your agents from any app](https://agentsky.dev/help/message-your-agents).
