Text Messaging from a Tablet - Does it cost money?

[WoozyPolarBear]

Hello, I have a Unlimited smartphone plan that is connected with a separate line for sharable data with an Android Tablet. I noticed the tablet has a text messaging app pre-installed on there. Does the sharable tablet access plan allow for unlimited text messaging, or do they charge a "pay-per-use" fee to send out texts?

Last I heard it was pay per use for texts / SMS / MMS on a tablet.

I thought so, and for that reason I have disabled that app to prevent myself or family member from accidentally using it. If anyone could confirm otherwise, please comment below.
