Another question about text messaging SORRY

[Devils Advocate]

Ok I have used Handcent and Go SMS as well as the stock messaging app on my Tbolt. I cannot figure out how to send a group message to more than 10 people at a time. When I use Go SMS I cannot even access the group of people I have set up in the contacts. I want to be able to send this without adding each individual person one at a time. Is there any way I can do this? I tried to search for this but I cannot fine any threads addressing this problem. Thanks in advance to all of you.

I think you can only do that by adding contacts in one at a time.

Try Groupme

Has anyone ever tried Groupme? I was not sure about the permissions and stuff with it. That part of Android OS intimidates me a little bit.

or if its a group u text together all the time you can set up a group in google contacts online, and just use that to text your group...

if its a static group i would go that route just because all the apps you download can cause clutter and glitches down the road -=X haha

That only allows 10 at a time

Boy more than 10 needed, can someone say chain email?? ... Just joking, have you consider sending first batch and then go to message and select forward and add the remaining names?

Try Groupy / contact by group app because it says it will do up to 150 Contacts... https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kigate.groupy&feature=search_result

I am thinking I may have to make three different groups for the messages. Hate to do it but I may have to, no screwing around with another app is needed that way. I may just activate my BB on the weekends to do it that way. The Verizon rep told me there is no limit to number of times I can switch so maybe for the next 16 or so weeks I switch back and forth. Not wanting to do it but......
