This morning i created a group in contacts with specific people i would like to send SMSs to. In other words, i associated few contact names to a category. I am able to go to my contacts and have the specific contacts show up but what i would like to do is send one SMS to that group of people. I was sitting for atleast 25 minutes trying to figure it out and i would appreciate if someone can point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance.
ur one step ahead of me.... i can't even seem to create a group in my contacts... i'm using a tilt with dutty's v3 rom...
and i would love to know how to send sms's to groups as well because i do a ton of txt msging
i use Skb Group SMS...not free though...
this was posted by someone in another thread... http://www.mediafire.com/?cxmjz2xdiay this is the latest version i've been using the 1.4.1 version on my Kaiser/Tilt and it's a life saver..about to try out this new version and see how it works...
Hi Mates,
I think the below mentioned link will solve your problem. I used this tool and its really very useful and effective and it even has a scheduling functionality included...

I've been looking for a program that could send SMSes to lists, like forward an important SMS to colleagues, jokes to friends etc. The cases are numerous. But even after having created custom categories and assigned them to each contact, there still didn't seem a way to use the categories for this purpose.
But I found Group SMS 1.4.1 over on softonic that adds a menu item "Add Group" which lists the categories that exist in the contact list, and lets you check which you want to add people from. On the next screen you remove checkmarks from those in those categories that you dont want to be added.
Very helpful, I hope it comes in handy for someone else.
Hey Shen why did you not post this just one day earlier. Yesterday was our Eid Festival and I was scrolling through my list of around 400 contacts selecting one by one whom to pick and whom to leave out while sending out "Eid Greetings" message. It took me kind of 45 minutes for just that. You know I really cursed MS for not building into their operating system something as basic as this. So well done I have not tried this yet but I am sure this is what I need.
Yeah I know how annoying that was But I had just found out about that program an hour before I posted here
yeah its a great app used it on my hermes as well to text my team, didn't know there was the add group function on my contacts list when i installed it until last week. Just by chance i found it.
It sure was frustrating when I didn't find any "Send to list" or "Send to group" option when i tried adding recipients for the first time.
Anyone know if theres any app for the TyTN II that combines group sms with disctintive sms sounds?
Ok I searched and didn't find anything so I'm posting here. Ok I purchased the program from iwindowsmobile.com called SMS chat. I like the program but for some reason it messed up my SMS messages. I would send some and they wouldn't send and also had problems receiving some. I uninstalled program and problems went away. I liked the program alot because of a clean interface but one thing I hated was that I would get weblinks sent to me from friends and the program did not allow me to copy the link or click on the link. I find that very annoying since people at work always send me links to different sites. Has anyone figured out a hack to get this working?
I am also going to add that I tried contacting the company, didn't work. I also tried to go into their FAQ section and there is no section. It keeps me at the same page. You would think copy and paste be something basic they'd include in the program.
Yeah..I use this app too. Those sms with links have to open through normal text messaging in the smschat folder, open normally and the link can be activated. Long way...emmm
i am also having issues with vito sms chat. im not sure if it is hardware or software related. it is only allowing me to send messages to one contact. whichever contact i select to message first, that is the only contact i can message. any others that i try to message after, it tells me "your text message cannot be sent" but when using the winMo sms, i have no issues. any ideas?
Hey guys the official Vito chat forumn for vito sms is found here: http://www.technologyatplay.com/main/forums/forum-view.asp?fid=165
Some or all your issues have been addressed at this link. I can definitely attest to the problem with opening links has been addressed. As you may be aware they're already on version 1.3 which has fixed quite a few issues. If your problem has not been addressed drop a line at the above address and within a day or two VitoI will answer your questions or at least address them
Anyone having this issue? what i mean by "group text" is basically a chatroom, not
just being able to send to multiple people at a time. the problem is they are getting
my texts individually and not as a group. I was able to send group texts as MMS
when the bionic first came out. im on the 902 eclipse 2.2 btw if that matters. any
help would be MUCH appreciated, thanks in advance!
PS the people im trying to group with all have Iphones, maybe thats the issue? I hate iphones and they all make fun of me for not being able to group chat -.-
Make fun of them for owning an Apple in the first place.
The eclipse ROM doesn't support the group chat feature you're looking for. You need to use the stock ROM.
Ok, after some research, it appears that Verizon is the reason Group SMS is disabled in Jelly Bean, but I could be wrong. At any rate, can anyone recommend a good tool to send Group SMS text messages that will NOT take over my stock messaging tool? I really like the stock text tool.
I tried Go SMS Pro, and it took over everything, and I hated the interface. bleh. Used it to send my group, and then uninstalled.
So, looking for a tool that will see my Google Groups, and allow me to send group SMS to those groups.
Oh, and has to be separate messages, no group chat tools. I have to send out the mass text, and receive individual replies that don't go to anyone else. It's the best way to deal with the team I'm working with.
Your help is appreciated!

I have this exact problem. Have you managed to find a solution else where yet?
Right now, I am using GroupText. Not awesome, but ok, and gets the job done. Still looking for a better solution.
Anyone have a better solution to group SMS?
Is anyone else having issue trying to do group messaging from your contacts? Before I upgraded to the Nexus 6 from the Note 2, I would go into my contacts (or Messages) and Select a group contact Like "362nd Soldiers" or "Coworkers" and be able to send a message to that group of people without having to manually select each and every person. I also noticed in messages, when I click on attach it goes straight to my camera and does not allow me to select another contact to send info or perhaps a pdf or excel file or an email link. This is vital in all facets of my life, reserves and my civilian job. I do not want to have to download an app for such a basic function that was pretty much automatic in all other phones. Am I missing something on how to do these basic functions or do I just need to get a different phone?
I tried searching the forums but I get anything other that what I am searching for and I have to go back to the main page of the forum and search Nexus 6 and go back to the main forums each time as well. The search function here is horrible and forget trying just to go right back to where you were. So I apologize if this question has already been answered.
