iPhone 14 group text issues

Is anyone else unable to use the ‘group name’ to send a group text message? Before upgrading I had a ‘family’ group and could type ‘family’ in the ‘To’ field to send them a text. I’ve recreated the group on my 14, but still have to type everyone in the ‘To’ field individually to send the group text - it doesn’t recognize the group name. We are all iPhones, so not sure what the issue is.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

Hi Flip1216,


Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. It looks like you came from the following support article: Add and remove people in group text messages on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


If you are unable to name a group, here are a few things to try to help:


  1. Restart your device to see if the issue is still there: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support
  2. Confirm that you are using the most recent update to rule out the older software: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
  3. Try the steps here: Name a group text message on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
  4. If the issue persists, contact Apple Support here: Contact - Official Apple Support


Have a great day.
