### 5/5 — Awesome group text app

*2026-07-07, version 5.14.1*

Works great, great functionalities and options for sending multiple texts

### 1/5 — Let's get better

*2026-05-20, version 5.14.1*

I wish the app worked better. It says it sent texts and it doesn't.

### 3/5 — Mensagem

*2026-04-08, version 5.13.2*

Não é possível enviar uma mensagem de leitura e depois a mesma ser apagada automaticamente conforme cada um vão lendo.

### 1/5 — App didn’t work

*2026-02-23, version 5.12*

I’m using this app since 2023 it’s good before but 2025 January still not working properly

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-02-23, version 5.12*

Tapping Add Group, entering a name, then clicking Done, resulting in nothing. Cannot add a group, so cannot use. Duff! 
iOS 17.5.1 iPhone 12

### 1/5 — Can’t send mass text, only group.

*2026-02-21, version 5.12*

🤦🏽‍♂️

### 1/5 — Keep freezing

*2026-02-18, version 5.12*

This app keeps freezing every time I try sending a message

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2026-02-17, version 5.12*

After just a few days of using the app I’m very happy with the ease of use.

### 5/5 — Excellent group SMS app - perfect for Christmas and New Year.

*2026-01-18, version 5.11*

Update after response from dev on 4/1/26: Thank you for your reply and apologies for my previous review, it appears you have already mitigated this issue - I have tested and you are correct, I have raised my erroneous 1 star review to 5 stars. My apologies again. PS, a more “in your face” explanation pop up of the framing feature when adding large lists might help users from making this error again. 

[original review below for context]

I added a list with 127 contacts. It tries to insert all at once then the message box at the bottom is hidden as all the names are present in the to field blocking the message field and send button so sending is difficult requiring a lot of screen orientation changes to try and get it to display send. Then it said message sending has failed (when it hadn’t) causing me to try again and ending up sending twice. It would be 5 stars if the app managed this by: 1. Fixing the large contact list bug, 2. Sending in smaller batches in a managed way to avoid that issue. If it’s only possible to just ping the lists to messages to send, the app could intelligently detect large lists and auto split them (Ie list name 1/2, list name 2/2 etc with a user info pop up). If these become fixed I will update my review.

### 5/5 — To good

*2026-01-16, version 5.10.1*

To good for group messaging
