Q: Group messages over wi-fi in iOS 8

I have been in a group message chat with two other friends for over a year now, and it's always sent no problem over wi-fi. I just upgraded to iOS 8, but can only send my group texts now. Is this because they only have iOS 7 and older?

    I'm having the same issue. 3 other people for the past couple of years, they haven't upgraded yet, I have and I can't send anything to them through my iPhone but my iPad can. I feel like Apple has stopped caring to beta test any of their software before it's released. They just release it, let everyone complain about it, and that's how they know what do fix. This is ridiculous.

    I'm having this problem too, regardless of wifi connection or using my data.

     

    One of iOS 8's features for messages was to silence group messages... That's kind of hard when it doesn't even allow you to send group iMessages

    I was having the same issue and I deleted the group conversation and restarted it with the same people and it sent as iMessage. Hope this helps.
