Enabling GROUP text messaging!
Ever wondered how to send a text message to several people and have their replies reach the whole group?!
This feature is known as "group messaging", where this setting controls whether or not the complete address list is sent to everyone in the group.
Enabling this feature is simple.
- Launch Settings
- Tap Messages
- Toggle "Group Messaging" to ON
When the group messaging is OFF in your device, each recipient will be unaware that anyone else received the same message. Though, if you have it ON but your recipient doesn't, then that recipient will not see the group list!
If you and the recipients have the group messaging enabled, then all the recipients will be displayed. And when any person replies, it will be sent to all members of the group.
All messages will be included in a single thread and the sender's names will be displayed above each other. (As shown below!)
If the the Group Messaging is enabled, the messages sent to the group will be billed as a single message!
Have fun Group Messaging!
P.S: Most probably this feature appears only at AT&T!
As it doesn't appear in Vodafone's AUS, nor O2's UK! (And maybe some other networks!)
Wondering!!..Will Verizon iPhone do it?!
