To get delivery confirmation reports sent to your iPhone simply add *0# to the beginning of your text message and once the SMS message has been delivered you will get a text message back saying:

Message for +(number) has been delivered on (date and time).

The recipient of your text message won?t see the *0# part of your message as this is stripped out by the network.

This is confirmed working on O2 and T Mobile in the UK.

Other countries/carriers have slightly different codes to add.

Yeah, for some reason most of these codes that work on iPhones in different countries don't work on AT&T iPhones.

I don't understand why iMessage will give you a sent/arrive icon plus date and time for each "bubble" of the conversation ... Yet regular SMS only has occasional time stamps. I have read receipt enabled in setting for SMS, but if they are there, I don't see them.

As far I know AT&T didn't support Delivery Reports. But why apple didn't added this features? Apple did not sell apple via AT&T.. Their also sell to other Cellular Network that have this featured...

We hope SMS Delivery Reports will be added on newest iOS version.. we really hope so..
