Hi Sandy, I have been following the most recent posts on this thread, but I just wanted to let you know that I had read your post. To answer your question, yes, it’s the native app that I have a group set up in. It’s only 2 and I know I was the creator of it. I clicked on the details button and found the group text field to name it next to the detail button after I was in the detailed page/interface. I’m making reference to this, so you have an idea of where I found it. I’ll have to take a look at this other app also. A while back I installed an app called “Mailshot.” Of course,it was to send a group email, but I don’t think it applied to text messages. Anyway, thanks for all the good information everyone.
