Love Island's iconic "I've got a text" line is a huge part of the ITV2 dating show. Much like the famous Love Island water bottles, every year the contestants get issued a mobile phone with their names emblazoned on them.
For every big event, including explosive recouplings, brutal dumpings, and fun challenges, the Islanders will get sent a text informing them of what's about to come, which they often read out loud to inform the rest of the group and viewers at home. The mobile devices replace the stars' real phones, which are whisked away before the start of the show to prevent them from communicating with the outside world.
The phones have no internet access but the Islanders can text each other, as well as take selfies and videos, many of which are posted on the official Love Island social media pages. However, it's been revealed that many contestants don't get to see their pictures after the show is finished as they don't get to keep their smartphones.
