group texting problem

[Shuckster]

I just got the v20. Having major group text issues. Is there a good texting app out there? I tried WhatsApp but it seems like I need all my contacts to be using WhatsApp to use it. Anything were group texting isn't such an issue?

Any texting app other than one that uses SMS has to have the same app on both ends.

The default texting app should allow group texting. chomp SMS. GO SMS Pro and Textra SMS should all work. (Unless the problem is how you're using group text, or what you expect from it.)

thank you! I'm just trying to send text to a group. could it be the fact that it's over 10 people?

It really shouldn't matter, but you can look for a setting that says something like "don't break long texts" and turn that off. The address for a large enough group may be too long to handle as a single message, but if you allow the app to break it into separate messages, it may work better.
