Hi Carolyn,

Yes, I routinely say something like "Tell Joe and Mary" followed by my message 
text, and it goes to both people, so I'm sure you can include more names and 
have it work.

Hello,

You can send messages to multiple people, regardless of whether they have 
ipHones or other devices. I think there are some features of group 
conversations that only work if everyone has an iOS device, though.

Hi Carolyn,

Yes, I routinely say something like "Tell Joe and Mary" followed by my message 
text, and it goes to both people, so I'm sure you can include more names and 
have it work.

My sister does that all the time, and if any of us respond, the response comes 
to all on the list.

Hi Richard,

 

Correct, I think Todd gives the example of emails and using the BCC field for 
sending to a number of people but without the other people seeing the other 
email addresses which they would if he used the CC field.

Of course you can send text messages to a bunch of people simply by adding 
these people in the Messages app, but the names and phone numbers will be 
visible to all. 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

mark, since I am one who was very glad when he lost posting rights, I'm not 
willing to write him off list, but his question seemed to be about emailing not 
texting, so I'm confused. 

I've never seen a texting with BCC settings, but mail on the iPhone can have a 
BCC field if you enable it in the mail settings.

To all:

So far, there is no way to send group text messages to many friends at 
once.
For example, you can do that in Windows 10, yes, but not with iOS 11 up.

With Outlook 2013 you could send an email to many friends using the BCC
option to hide their names/email addresses.  But what about iOS 
11.4.1???

Does anyone on ViPhone know of a good app I could use to do the same 
way as
done in Outlook?

Here is what I have wondered. Can I say Siri, send group messages to: 

Mary Jones
John Smith
Bill Brown
Jane 
White
Jack Green

Can I do that, then dictate message and she sends it? 

Best regards,
