Types of group text messages
There are three types of group messages that you might see: group iMessage, group MMS, and group SMS. The Messages app automatically chooses the type of group message to send based on settings, network connection, and carrier plan. For example:
- If you and your recipients are using Apple devices and iMessage is turned on, then the group message is sent as an iMessage. You need to activate iMessage
- If you send a group message to people who aren't using iMessage, then the message is sent as an MMS or SMS message. You need to contact your Carrier to enable SMS and/or MMS.
All responses in a group SMS are sent as individual text messages and the recipients can’t see the other responses from the group.
