Ios similator can not send messages but you can send it by running your project in divice by using this code.

Add MessageUI framework in your project

Then in your .h file add this

#import <MessageUI/MessageUI.h>

@interface MessageViewController : UIViewController<MFMessageComposeViewControllerDelegate>

- (IBAction)SendTextBtnTapped:(id)sender;

@end

And in your .m file add this

- (IBAction)SendTextBtnTapped:(id)sender {
    [self sendSMS:@"" recipientList:[NSArray arrayWithObjects: nil]];
}

//for sms

- (void)sendSMS:(NSString *)bodyOfMessage recipientList:(NSArray *)recipients
{
    MFMessageComposeViewController *controller = [[MFMessageComposeViewController alloc] init];
    if([MFMessageComposeViewController canSendText])
    {
        controller.body = bodyOfMessage;    
        controller.recipients = recipients;
        controller.messageComposeDelegate = self;
        controller.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent;
        [self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES];
    }    
}

- (void)messageComposeViewController:(MFMessageComposeViewController *)controller didFinishWithResult:(MessageComposeResult)result
{
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];

    if (result == MessageComposeResultCancelled)
        NSLog(@"Message cancelled");
    else if (result == MessageComposeResultSent)
        NSLog(@"Message sent");  
    else 
        NSLog(@"Message failed");
}
