When composing a text message in Command with Twilio if a user reaches a certain character count while also using emojis, a prompt will appear recommending the user to change the message from SMS to MMS to save credits. This happens by the user attaching a file to the message then once the credit cost is recalculated the adjustment to the credit amount being spent will change.
