Q: Does turning off group texting prevent my replies from going out to the mass?

I receive responses to group texts. How can i assure my responses do go to everyone else as well? Just turn off group texting?

    Hi Auntie_Em4!

     

    I have an article for you here that can hopefully help you understand group messaging a little further:

     

    iOS: Understanding group messaging

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5760

     

    Specifically, I believe this section of that article answers your question:

    If you send a message to multiple recipients without group messaging in use by the sender and all recipients, an individual message will go to each recipient using either SMS or MMS. Responses to these messages will be delivered only to the original sender in seperate messaging threads.

    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
