It’s been over a year since last update. Please add the ability to schedule group text for a later time. Also, I saw someone review that this is only for iMessages but that is not true! You have to turn on “send as sms” in you iMessage settings and presto! ### 4/5 — Replies *2019-10-16, version 1.0.6* Does this app allow you to reply back to the group? ### 4/5 — needs update iOS 13+ *2019-09-30, version 1.0.6* add dark mode ### 4/5 — Group Text+ *2019-07-29, version 1.0.6* So far so good. I am using this to send group text to our church members. ### 2/5 — Waste of money *2018-11-02, version 1.0.5* This was the biggest waste of 4.99 I’ve spent in a long time. Wish there was a way to get my money back. Found way better and user friendly apps for free. Worse app ever. Already deleted the piece of junk. ### 3/5 — Great but crashes *2018-01-21, version 1.0.2* App does exactly what I need but after a few uses it starts to crash as soon as I open the app. Force closing the app does not fix it. A phone restart does fix it for a bit until it starts crashing again. ### 4/5 — Ios9, iPad Pro *2016-02-09, version 1.0.1* Please update this app to take advantage of the new features introduced in iOS 9, and native iPad Pro support. ### 2/5 — Message Ap *2015-05-14, version 1.0.1* Not so great…I can get the names into the group messaging just as quick without this app. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2015-03-27, version 1.0.1* Very well done. Love the extension. If Apple would allow it, adding names iMessage groups to shortcuts would make this even better! Hopefully Apple opens up that functionality. ### 5/5 — Gets the job done *2015-02-23, version 1.0.1* I needed to be able to have a “saved” group that I could easily send an MMS to. This app fit the bill flawlessly. So simple to use too! Thanks :-) ### 2/5 — Kinda disappointed *2015-02-12, version 1.0.1* If this had been a free app then fine, but it was $2 for me. So what's the issue? Well I thought you could select contacts from the list and it would send 1 text to each individual person, and if you wanted to text a group then you select a group from the list. After all, the list in the demo video shows individual contacts and groups separately. Instead, if you select multiple contacts then it bundles them all together into a group instead of texting each individually! Hugely misleading! 😤 I give it 1 star because I have to and the second star because it actually is easy and quick to select contacts, just as they say, but I take off 3 stars for being misleading. 😒👎 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t send texts using the app anymore *2021-11-29, version 1.0.6* App all of a sudden stopped working. It doesn’t pull contacts in anymore just numbers and it won’t send texts. Please update ### 1/5 — Mostly works? *2019-07-26, version 1.0.6* This app arbitrarily decides to do mass texts in imessage sometimes even when it is turned off. This needs to be fixed, or made more transparent, before I would give it a positive rating. If you can’t be sure it will work properly, you can’t risk mass texting people if there is a chance they will all be incorrectly messaged or see each other’s phone numbers. If this can happen, then this app is practically unusable based off of what it is advertised to do/what you pay for ### 1/5 — STILL BROKEN DESPITE UPDATE *2018-09-23, version 1.0.4* Before iOS 11, I used Group Text+ to message all of my co-workers in mass text messages. It worked great and it was my go-to app for communicating on the fly. Since iOS 11, the most people you can text at any one time is 10. I need to be able reach out to many more than that in a text. Not sure if there is anything that can be done, but at this point, I might as well use the native app because the whole purpose of Group Text+ was to text a large group of people, and this no longer works!!!! ### 1/5 — Does not run. Broken app. Why is it for sale? *2018-04-20, version 1.0.2* Just downloaded on iPhone X. App launches then immediately quits. I want a refund! ### 1/5 — Very useful - UPDATED TO 1 STAR *2018-01-10, version 1.0.2* Both the Group Email and Group Text apps are must haves on my list. They dropped the EMail app with no plan to update it your iOS 11+ or make it available again. I depended heavily on both of these apps, for them to just drop support for a paid app that was the obvious complimentary app to the text app was unacceptable to me. I've had to dedicate a significant amount of time to buying and finding replacement apps. They offered no explanation or alternatives when I contacted them regarding this issue, they essentially just said tough luck your money was wasted buying or app. Based on this I've migrated to an alternative vendor with a better reputation for long term support of their paid apps and changed my reviews for all of this vendors apps from 5's to 1's. I strongly recommend selecting another vendor for your paid apps that you will rely on regularly. ### 1/5 — App Crashes *2017-11-23, version 1.0.2* App continues to crash. Reinstalled and nothing. iPhone X. Not sure if that’s the problem but still unacceptable. ### 1/5 — EVIL APP *2016-10-24, version 1.0.1* Need help restoring my iPhone contact list after GROUPTEXT + messed it up. Frustrated big time. Afraid to delete the entire app...will probably cause more problems! ### 1/5 — Group Text+ *2015-09-21, version 1.0.1* Total waste of $2 and my time trying to figure it out; because it would not send texts to a large group of 14 people who were 50/50 with iPhones and other types of phones. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2014-12-24, version 1.0.1* Does not work. Just wasted $2 on this app. It is stupid and does not allow me to send a group message. WTH!?!? Do not waste your money folks! I have no clue why it has so many good reviews but do not get sucked in like I did!!! ### 2/5 — Only works with iMessage *2019-11-19, version 1.0.6* I wanted to use this to send group messages that if replied to would only come to me and not the whole group. I turn off iMessage, as the instructions say. But then it won’t send at all. However I can send a group iMessage to 47 different phones. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best ever! *2022-06-17, version 1.0.6* I love this app! I can make groups, and then add people and remove people right in the text. It’s so easy to send texts to different groups without having to figure which group it is that u want to use, then, if u choose, u can add and remove people and old numbers that have been changed. ### 5/5 — Ease of use *2019-08-22, version 1.0.6* Very easy to use and modify!!! Has been a pleasure to use..... ### 5/5 — Group text *2019-06-16, version 1.0.6* Great app, I use it often. ### 5/5 — This app is back and better than ever *2018-09-22, version 1.0.4* This app disappeared when Apple forced developers to go 64 bit. It was missed, but it is back and works better than ever. Glad to see that it was not abandoned. ### 5/5 — Quick action messaging *2018-09-21, version 1.0.4* Useful app to save a few seconds each time you share something via iMessage. ### 5/5 — Fantastic app for quickly selecting people for group text *2018-02-22, version 1.0.2* I can’t believe you updated this app for iPhone X! Thank you! Makes sending messages to people so much easier. When you use the share sheet you can quickly tap on the people’s names that you want to share with instead of searching in the iMessage box for peoples names. It’s great because sometimes I want to text my wife by her self or add on my parents really quickly. This app makes it super easy. ### 5/5 — best messaging app *2016-10-16, version 1.0.1* this is the only app that messaged groupwise within the iphone native app, which also allows for you to read the dialogue. most important: you can choose each group member affiliation by the type of messaging contact, and even add contacts twice , for example email or cell, others don't allow for that, so this is the only app you need to get. ### 5/5 — Great group texting *2015-04-05, version 1.0.1* As a coach of volleyball teams I need group lists for each team Varsity, JV, FS and for each gender. Here I can create multiple lists and text them separately or at the same time. I also created an alumni text list. Why this interface does not exist in iOS continues to amaze me Great job! ### 5/5 — Great app *2015-04-01, version 1.0.1* Very useful and convenient app for mass sending of text messages. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Top notch *2015-03-31, version 1.0.1* Great app to quickly and easily send pictures, clipboard content, canned text, and more. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
