Number format for French Polynesia
Mobiles in French Polynesia carry 8 digits after +689 with no trunk 0, so 87 12 34 56 is sent as +689 87 12 34 56. Set French Polynesia as the default country and local numbers need no prefix at all.
+689 87 12 34 56
Alphabet and message length
French uses letters outside GSM-7, such as â, ê, î, ô, û, ç, ë and ï. Any one of them sends the whole text as Unicode, 70 characters per segment and 67 per part. Written without those marks the same text keeps 160 characters per segment, which often cuts a long message to less than half the segments.
Local time in French Polynesia
French Polynesia spans 3 offsets in January, from UTC-10 to UTC-9, so a national list reads the same text at different local hours. A 09:00 start in Tahiti is 19:00 UTC; the console shows both times when you schedule.
