  7. 7
    We want to concentrate on the 'Read reports' option
    .
    It says "Request a read report for each message you send". When activated, this option allows the HTC One M8 to send us a report telling us when a message has been read. This can be very useful because it shows that information has been received and the person has read the message. That can be quite important. We need to know if they've read it or not in order to think of another way to contact them if we know that they haven't read the message, for example.

    If we want to turn this option On, press down on the box on the right-hand side of the screen next to 'Read reports'
    .
    Pressing down on it will put a blue check in it, and a blue check signifies that this option is now activated.
