I created a group contact but can’t send a text

I went through the ridiculously laborious process of adding about 50 contacts to a group contact on my iCloud account, however, it is not showing up on my phone contact so I can’t send a text to the group. Crazy thing is that when I click on Groups it is there, however when I try to search for it in contacts it is not. How the heck do I send a text to the group I created?

The Groups in contacts is for grouping then not for sending messages.

You can create a group for Friends, Family . . . to organize them.

Creating groups for messages is a headache. People create groups inside of groups creating multiple infinite loops

Hope this helps
