Five stars
It is the best thing ever !.
Let's get better
I wish the app worked better. It says it sent texts and it doesn't.
Does things almost perfectly!
I use this for a few groups I regularly message to. Only small glitch is if I have a large number of addresses, it is hard to get to the Send button.
Broken app
It was a great app when I first started using it, but now maybe because of software updates on the iPhone I have to press to send everyone of the text messages individually ! It’s broken and needs fixing
Only sends group imessages.
My clients use all types of phones, so This won't work for me
Ok
Ok
Can’t send mass text, only group.
🤦🏽♂️
Great help
I love this app, the only thing is difficult for me or I still didn’t found to do it the proper way is when I put the message is not easy to find the send button (that is me or I didn’t get it yet-otherwise the app is a huge help). Thank you developer
It doesn’t do much
I wanted to Bcc a group of numbers but this app only kinda does that. If set the “frame” to 1, you can type your message but you will need to click send for each number individually otherwise it recommends that I turn iMessage off. But I no one needs this app if they just turn off iMessage. It’s a miss that they didn’t code the app to send all messages with a single click.
No BCC
From the pictures, it looks like you can send BCC texts, but you can’t. It could be helpful to organize text groups since messages doesn’t.

Not helpful for privacy
Needed privacy. Did not want everyone to see the list of recipients. Also did not want group to see individual replies.
iPhone
Getting to send the message was a bit tricky to begin with but worked out that if I turn the phone sideways and click the icon where you can free hand it shows up the send button
Search bar is not working anymore
Hello, I've been using the app for years, but after updating my iPhone to iOS 15, the search bar no longer shows me all the corresponding contacts. I tried to search for contacts with names in different languages (e.g., in English, Greek and Serbian), however, the search bar still does not work properly. Please, I need this application for my job, fix it !!!
Can’t send to all?
With the most recent update, I can no longer send to all recipients. It seem to only want to send to 8 people?
Great app - Practical
Works great and easy to use
Why would I want this
This is just a stupid app, if I would like to create a group chat I would just do it on my own. Useless
Great app
I’ve discovered that not all the recipients are receiving the messages. It shows that they have but that is not the case .
Needs an update
Was working perfectly but now when you search for a contact to add it to a list, the results don’t appear correctly. If I search for Adam, it brings up other contacts and not the result I want… I now have to manually scroll through my contact list and add it manually.
Can’t get to send tab!
I can write a text to my group. But whe I go to send, the app puts it into a text message and brings up the contacts and a keypad. . . Trouble is the send button is behind the keypad and I can’t get to send. If I tap the screen to add a new recipient manually, I can see the send icon. Still learning how to manage it. Would be good if I didn’t have to go through this process though.
Great app
Sending messages to large groups or the same message to individuals is easy. Blessings to the developers of the app.
Doesn’t work
Message support no answer. I turned off imessage and group message didn’t receive any texts. added my own number for nothin
Send button hard to locate on iPhone 14
When I finish writing my message, the send button is only partially visible. Also can you give an option of the messages responses going to the whole group instead of the sender only?
Not working
Once I have arranged the group trying to send a text but everything freeze when I tried to send a message to the group keep freezing Definitely you need to update the software
Seems great
It would be great if your app could import the group info from contacts. As it is you have to go through selecting each person individually to set up a group text. But good so far apart from that.
Love the app …one minor suggestion
Update about suggestion in original review: Developer reached out, we discussed the suggestion, and they just provided video of that “missing feature” in action. Should be deployed soon! ORIGINAL REVIEW: First - love the app, found it when getting a new phone and my previous app was no longer available for download One suggestion: be able to start a group message to a couple of Groups. Use case: I use the app to provide Afterhours alerts to various teams. Sometimes I need to notify a couple teams at the same time, and have the single message go to personnel in both groups, so any replies are seen by both teams.
Never sends messages.
App has very hard time connecting to server or internet and won’t send messages. Very disappointing.
Thanks
Thanks
It’s messed up
The last Apple update won’t let it work properly.
No longer working
I have been using this app to talk to my tenants for over a year now with mostly wonderful results. But since the latest apple update, the app no longer sends any messages. I can go thru the whole process of writing the text, picking the contacts I want to send the message to, and it goes into messages but then it fails to send. I tried reaching out to support in case it was a known issue that was being worked on but no response. Hoping someone can get this fixed soon.
Dev team is responsive.
Back story: After upgrading my phone, I was unable to install an app I had been using to alert multiple teams about tech issues occuring at my company. So I had to find a different app veery quickly. Found Group SMS and gave it a try. Well, it works great and met all my needs except one. I reached out to the Dev team to share about that one lacking feature, thinking I may hear back from them some day. The next day I received a response and we sent a few emails back and forth about an additional feature for Group SMS . No promises were made, except that it would be looked into in hopes of including that in a future upgrade. I truly think they are looking into it and I am anxious to see it someday soon.
Thumbs down (iPhone)
Can’t create as hoc group using only phone numbers. All recipients must be contacts. But, after allowing access to contacts, could not find some of them.
Using messaging app
Relatively easy to use , a bit easier when message stored in notes to avoid losing text .
Used to work great but no more
What changed? This used to be a great app for our family. I could pick and choose from my list who I wanted to send a text to. It no longer works properly. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but nope.
No longer works
I loved this app but it no longer works. You can add any new people to the lists. Texts can be sent to the lists saved but I will be now looking for a new app that can handle all of my customers.
Ok
Ok
It didn't work
Created the group, typed the text tapped the Send button, it didn't work at all. When adding contacts it doesn't filter your contacts, it searches it making the feature almost useless.
Disappointed
Was working great for over 2 years now. Survived a fire brigade using it during the 2019-2020 fire season. 19-01-2021 died a death. I can’t send any messages. Worked out if I try and add another person to the group message and then press cancel. Then press enter it let’s me send the message.
Unreliable
Worked well for a while, but now it is not dependable. I need to get quick responses out to a group and this app has co to sully failed me.
This App is no longer fit for purpose
Since the most recent update, if you have more than 30 people in a group you literally cannot write in the text box on an iPhone 11. Not sure what you’ve done but the app is now useless. Very frustrating!
Just What I Needed
I wasn’t too sure about this app when I installed it. I send out over a hundred texts on Mondays and Fridays to people letting them know that I am praying for them. We changed carriers and the original app was specific to them so I could not use it. I can send out 20 at a time which is great! The groups are easy to edit and use. The challenge I see is that I do not receive replies with the app but the resident text message does receive the.
Not a useful tool
It does exactly what my iPhone’s stock group messaging app does already. Why download an app for something your iPhone already does?
Good
Good app,please update Add new features.
Annoying
If you send a message to multiple recipients the app breaks out the group and the text appears over the top of it, making it impossible to hit the send button
Good but frustrating
I find that when I create a group and send a message, I have to delete that message in order to send another to the same group, otherwise it will only try and send as an iMessage, and not all recipients have iPhones.

doesnt work
can actually send a text message with the app. creates it, but cant do anything with it
Great app
Great app! Just needs some bug fixing when sending a group message as the send button sometimes gets stuck behind the numbers or blocked by iPhones “word suggestions”
Not functioning
It is not functioning since 7 days. Please suggest.
Messages won’t send
Message won’t send . Any tips to Sort this out ?
