### 1/5 — Super Frustrated

*2026-08-20, version 6.5.2*

This app used to work really well. Has it been abandoned or left to work on another project.
I relied on it heavily and hope I don’t still have money being draw out annually for this app that does not work anymore.

### 1/5 — GroupText shortcut issue

*2026-08-16, version 6.5.2*

GroupText is not recognizing the GroupText shortcut and keeps asking me to install when it is already installed. Now it’s not even able to send any messages.

### 1/5 — Already subscribe on iphone & ipad wants a separate subscription

*2026-08-10, version 6.5.2*

I Already subscribe on iphone & ipad wants a separate subscription. Why?

Why is there only  a vertical ipad orientation? iPad's sit in desks horizontally.

FAQ links to nothing.

### 1/5 — The App no longer works efficiently.

*2026-08-07, version 6.5.1*

The App fails to deliver messages to everyone in a group. I made new groups with fewer than 40 members and the App still omits different members at different times.

### 1/5 — Failure

*2026-07-24, version 6.5.1*

I just spent an hour creating my text group and adding the invite. I then sent it to the group and it only sent to 1/4 of the group. Now I have to individually figure out who it didn’t get sent to. So frustrating!

### 2/5 — Wonky App

*2026-07-22, version 6.5.1*

I have used this messaging app for quite some time now. More than a year maybe two. For a while it worked pretty well, but it no longer does. It only sends out part of my text list. I have written for support and given some suggestions that I have tried and none of it consistently works. This app has become wonky and unreliable. Therefore, I will not be renewing my subscription. And how hopeful I was that it would be as good as it was at the beginning.

### 1/5 — Group text

*2026-07-22, version 6.5.1*

I have used this app for years. All of a sudden it quit working correctly. I had groups set up but then it started having me email each person separately. I don’t have time to email 80-100 people separately. I have emailed and asked for advise on what happened with no response. I paid my yearly charge to have this app and now can’t even use it.

### 5/5 — Updates Corrected Issues

*2026-07-17, version 6.5.1*

I have been using this app for years with no problems and easy effort.  The past few months an app update created a number of issues.  Communication with the developers wasn’t great, but there WAS communication.  From my perspective, all issues have now been resolved with the latest update.  The additional features added to the app also create an easier, more efficient group emailing.  So, I will say the bumps in the road resulted in a welcome bonus and ultimately an even better user experience.

### 1/5 — Not work again

*2026-07-16, version 6.5.1*

I just tried to send to 101 members again. It stopped at 25. I had to go through the entire list and deselect the 25 and send out again. Then it finished the rest and finally it said completed 

Yesterday I had to do that 3 times and it never said completed. After the 3rd time there were about 3 left not done and I sent them out individually 

This app is no longer reliable. Congregation members are mad when they are missed in the group text. I wish you never tried to update the app. Not worth it anymore. It appears you stopped responding to let me know you are working on it. I feel like you are considering me a nuisance

### 2/5 — Just not what I wanted.

*2026-07-04, version 6.5.1*

I can do the same thing on my iPhone by copying and pasting to each person individually. 
I want an app that can send one message to multiple people at the same time without them seeing that it went to the others on the list. 
I apologize if I missed something but I’ve tried multiple times and contacted the no one that work customer service… 🤷
This review is the only thing I can do to say that I wasted my money on an app that isn’t what it’s supposed to be.
