What's New in Contact Groups

3.02

March 3, 2025

• The app can now create and add qualifying recipients to an SMS/text message for groups that contain Contacts with a mobile number in the following countries: Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Netherlands, South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Eswatini, Lesotho, Mozambique and Türkiye. Only numbers prefixed with + and the country code of the above countries and the digits which identify a mobile/cell number for that country are recognised. Canada and the United States of America are are not included because there seems to be no way to distinguish a mobile/cell number from a landline phone number. The user can enter the desired text and add any attachments. The app is not responsible for sending the message nor for any errors that may occur eg of the user does not have the ability to send texts internationally or the mobile number is incorrect etc. The whole process is handled by iMessage directly. If you would like a country with well-defined mobile phone prefixes to be included please send me an email with the rules that identify a mobile phone number. If you encounter any issues, please send me an email. • Worked around an issue where the buttons in the navigation bar became invisible after returning from viewing/editing a Contact. • When adding a Contact to a Group, simply tapping the Group in the list of Groups will achieve this, rather than previously tapping Select then choosing the Groups and pressing the + button.

Good but this may be another Apple deficiency…

I would have thought editing an individual contact would show and allow editing of the group membership of that contact?

Big help!!

At first I thought this app was like others that only partly worked and thanks to the developer’s guidance, the app works perfectly and worth the money spent.
Thank you Godfrey

Contacts group for email

A very useful app to make an email distribution list. App programmer very responsive and helpful, and keeps app updated.

Doesn’t work: 0/5 stars

When attempting to add contacts to a new Group, it continues to respond with “Error, try again in a few seconds”
Waste of money!

Response from developer

Another customer had an issue this week and, as requested, reported it. That issue has now been fixed in version 2.05 - see the update notes. Doing the right thing works. Note that this app was released in April and there are no other reviews from Canada so it must be working for most Canadians. Please try version 2.05. If that resolves your issue then please update this review. If not, then please do the right thing and report it via email as requested. If this review is not updated then it can be assumed that either you did not install the update and retry, or you did but did not do the right thing - either reporting issue(s) or that your issue has been fixed.

The plus sign to add someone to a group is not working...please fix

Response from developer

The latest updates handle the case when attempting to add a contact to a just-created Google/Gmail group can fail due to iOS/Google interaction (retrying after a few seconds resolves the issue). If you still have an issue please send me a bug report via the link at the bottom of the Help screen.
