I have an existing group with 40 contacts created in iCloud as per your instructions. How do I send a group message without having to add each individual recipient again? eg Enter group name and the message goes to all contacts in that group. Is this possible? Yes or No?
Figured out a work-around. Set up the group message as a shortcut in Apple's shortcuts app.

Hi there!
You should see the group name or something like a short list of names if the group does not have a name.
Simply click it and send your message.
If you don’t see any of those option, make sure to be in the “All Messages” section. If you are not sure, just tap the arrow on the top left corner, and then select “All Messages”.
Hope this helps.

I also have set up a contact group with many contacts. When I compose a new text message and hit + , the group appears under the "Groups" list, but the group does not appear as an individual Contact. I see no way to select the group itself to send a message to. It still looks like every single person has to be added individually.
This part doesn't work for me
